Leitrim with impressive success.\u00a0\u00a0 The Community Kitchen concept has emerged in the US as a unique way to provide aspiring entrepreneurs with time-share access to production facilities and the opportunity to start and expand specialty food and catering businesses (a strong emphasis on organic value added production) without the prohibitive cost.\u00a0 This facility offers three important benefits to startup and existing food businesses:<\/p>\n<p>A very cost effective production facility \u2013 clients pay only for the time they use the facility \u2013 one hourly fee, no other overheads (with the exception of ingredients)<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>The \u201cincubator approach\u201d offers potential entrepreneurs access to business support services &amp; training and technical assistance (e.g. through a FAS or Skillnets food cluster programme) &#8211; essential ingredients to the success and growth of any startup.<\/li>\n<li>Access to a technical information database and support<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>The Community Kitchen should also be used in a training context, to provide a formalized platform for a variety of training interventions.\u00a0\u00a0 For example, The Food Hub is working towards becoming a FAS accredited training centre and sees this as a major income opportunity for the business. \u00a0The community\/training development kitchen as a learning centre would serve a dual function:-\u00a0 it will facilitate new product development \u2013 practice and training and will be available to producers or potential producers who will avail of specialist support to experiment in developing new and innovative values added organic or primary products or perhaps making changes to existing product lines.\u00a0 It should also available as a facility for other individuals or groups to run food related courses, classes, workshops and demonstrations \u2013 healthy community themed courses for example.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><footer class=\"entry-footer\"><\/footer><\/article><div class=\"iconlist-timeline\"><\/div><\/li>\n<li><div class='iconlist_icon av-av_iconlist_item-da14c524eab5c3479ecd20e3ec0c2cda avia-font-entypo-fontello'><span class='iconlist-char' aria-hidden='true' data-av_icon='\ue89a' data-av_iconfont='entypo-fontello'><\/span><\/div><article class=\"article-icon-entry \"  itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/CreativeWork\" ><div class=\"iconlist_content_wrap\"><header class=\"entry-content-header\"><h4 class='av_iconlist_title iconlist_title  '  itemprop=\"headline\" >Business enterprise training room and office facilities<\/h4><\/header><div class='iconlist_content '  itemprop=\"text\" ><p>The project could offer a permanent source of information, motivation and advice through the office of the Centre Manager and include a resource facility \u2013a library style consultation resource which would be established in a publically accessible format.\u00a0 While this is not a costly measure, it would be a highly visible, highly interactive physical information resource.\u00a0\u00a0 The provision of training facilitates, accredited with FAS, and could be stimulus in terms of building the skill bases of a number of challenged sectors and target groups.\u00a0\u00a0 This would work to provide additionality to existing agencies and programmes \u2013 e.g. Teagasc and LEADER.\u00a0 In particular it could work to provide specific learning in<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Farm diversification<\/li>\n<li>Added \u2013 Value to local traditional skills<\/li>\n<li>Resources will safeguard natural endowments<\/li>\n<li>Product Development based on local produce creating additional employment<\/li>\n<li>Promote new business developments such as restaurants to enhance the evening economy and specialist food retails outlets.<\/li>\n<li>Generating the potential for the development of a regional cuisine using artisan products produced within the local area which will enhance the visitor experience and promote \u201cFood Tourism\u201d and increase employment in the sector.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>The centre should also network with similar centres in Ireland (Limerick, Mitchelstown and Leitrim) to facilitate the exchange of technology &amp;
