With a skilled kitchen crew, specialty equipment, and lower minimums than other co-packers, our manufacturing was created especially for small-food companies. Leave the cooking and packing to us so you can focus on growing your business.

We built our own co-manufacturing kitchen because we couldn’t find a comparable operation in Boston to meet the production needs of our growing product companies. Our co-manufacturing kitchen allows us to:
Outsource production: We take on production for our members when they secure large-scale contracts so that they can continue to grow. We also outsource the production for local restaurants and product companies.
Reduce food waste: We support Massachusetts farms by turning surplus crops into products that can generate revenue beyond the growing season.
Increase healthy and local food: We increase the availability of minimally-processed, locally-sourced food.
Create jobs: We are bringing manufacturing jobs back to the city and creating sustainable employment in the heart of one of Boston’s most underserved neighborhoods.
Supports our mission-based work: This work generates much needed revenue for CommonWealth Kitchen, enabling us to help more entrepreneurs each year.
