Parties That Cook Stumbles Upon Growing Online Marketplace: FoodHub

While in Portland on business, Parties That Cook founder and CEO, Bibby Gignilliat, discovered a great new (wholesale) resource for  food buyers and sellers. FoodHub, a fast-growing non-profit, is an interactive directory that makes it easy and efficient for wholesale food buyers and sellers to connect and conduct business. Best of all, it’s free!

Browse through a directory of members who are willing and eager to do business. All members can recommend and even rate other members. Think of it like online dating for food businesses! Or don’t… If you are a food buyer, seller,  associate or distributor based in Oregon, Washington, Montana, Idaho, Alaska or California, check it out. You deserve it!

In following its mission of helping build strong regional food economies, FoodHub has recently launched its Knowledge Base. There you can find help getting started, as well as information on sourcing funding, creating marketing plans, developing menus, strategic pricing, starting school gardens, legislation and policy and more! We at Parties That Cook are excited by FoodHub’s potential, especially at a time when attention is shifting towards LOCAL products and companies. If you want to give back, and help this non-profit grow, consider making a donation or sponsoring part of their site!
