What is a Commissary Kitchen?
A commissary kitchen is a licensed commercial kitchen where food businesses can prepare and store food. Commissary kitchens are more affordable for small businesses allowing them to forgo building and operating a commercial kitchen of their own. Food businesses also use commissary kitchens because they’re legally required to prepare and cook food products that will be sold to the public in a licensed commercial kitchen.
Cook Tucson is a dedicated commissary kitchen & culinary incubator which provides food businesses a place to get started, to grow and to thrive.
