GREEN BAY, WI (WTAQ-WLUK) — The Cannery Public Market is returning to Green Bay — now as a test kitchen designed to encourage food and restaurant businesses to thrive.
The Cannery shut down roughly three years ago due to COVID-19, but now it’s back and ready to bring new life to the area.
The test kitchen set up will provide educational and technical support to multiple vendors — mitigating the risk for entrepreneurs who may not have the means to start their business on their own.
And businesses outgrowing the test kitchen environment is not a loss but, rather, a testimony to the success of the plan.
“A graduation is the best thing we could hope for, right? If we can take that fledgling business and graduate them to their own space, that’s a success,” explained Base Companies President/CEO Paul Belschner.
Aside from supporting businesses, the test kitchen will also provide a variety for the community, as the one space will be host to several vendors.
