Chicago Good Food Accelerator
Entrenuity Business Coach Working with Good Food Accelerator
Entrenuity business coach, Shelby Parchman, of InUrban Strategies, is working with the Good Food Accelerator to help Chicago food entrepreneurs, like KimmyKakes Co, develop their business and have a positive impact on the food industry in underserved communities.
The Good Food Accelerator gets farm and food businesses ready for prime time, giving them the skills to launch or scale up. Now in its fourth year, this fellowship program for food entrepreneurs is based at 1871, Chicago’s center of innovation. Fellows are paired with industry-leading mentors and are connected to potential customers and investors. This is the nation’s first accelerator focused on building supply chains for sustainable local food.
Shelby is working to bring the program to Entrenuity with the focus on developing women and minority owned businesses in Chicago's underserved and under-resourced communities.
