Hope & Main is Rhode Island’s premier culinary incubator. We are a non-profit dedicated to empowering a diverse community of entrepreneurs to jump-start their food businesses in order to build a more just, sustainable, and vibrant local food economy.

We help entrepreneurs who want to start a small food or beverage company to launch their business at our facility in Warren or Providence, Rhode Island. We also assist food companies to manufacture their products in small batches; restaurants to develop and manufacture a product from their menu; and aspiring entrepreneurs to launch a café, restaurant or food truck business that begins in our rental kitchens.
