Frequently Asked Questions
The Starter Plan is great for new and underutilized shared kitchens with occasional renters who want to establish their internal scheduling and billing systems. Once you have more than 5 clients, you can easily move to the Professional or Annual Plan to continue growing.
The Professional Plan (most popular) in best for growing shared kitchens that have (or plan to have) more than 5 food business members and want to use The Food Corridor on a month-to-month basis.
The Annual Plan is great for kitchens that have (or plan to have) more than 5 food business members and want the best value by paying annually (saves 10%).
There are no additional fees for onboarding support or account activation! All plans come with onboarding support from our friendly Gnomes, which includes: regular check-ins from your Onboarding Specialist, bulk adding of client accounts, communication templates to onboard your clients, and a complimentary 1:1 onboarding call. Additional 1:1 onboarding support calls are available for $70 per call. We also offer handy self-serve guides so you can get set up at your own pace.
We recommend creating your account about a month before you want to start using The Food Corridor in your kitchen. Create your account whenever you’re ready to start customizing your settings and onboarding your food businesses. Your first month is free on the Professional and Annual plan, so you can use that time to get your account up and running.
There is a platform fee based on the amount you charge your food businesses. The platform fee covers our ongoing costs of running the software, including transaction fees. This also allows you to have unlimited access to document storage, billing and invoicing, and messaging, so we don’t have to nickel and dime you as you grow on The Food Corridor. The platform fee varies with how your food businesses pay–ACH or PAD bank transfer, and manual payments (2%), and credit card (4%)– or if you are on the Starter Plan (4%).
You can decide how the platform fees are paid. If you choose to pay for the platform fees yourself, then The Food Corridor will collect a percentage of the payments your clients make to you to cover this fee. If you choose to pass the fees on to your clients, then the platform fee will be added directly to their bill in addition to what you charge them. Curious what other kitchens do? Half of the kitchens on The Food Corridor pay platform fees themselves, and the other half pass them along to their food businesses.
The Food Corridor offers a Per Client Plan on a case-by-case basis to kitchens that cannot use our payment processor, Stripe. Reach out to our sales team for information ([email protected]).
Yes! At The Food Corridor, our mission is to enable efficiency, growth, and innovation in local food. Because of that, if you are a non-profit kitchen, we provide a 10% discount on the Professional Plan. You can also choose to pay annually and receive the discount. You must provide us with an active IRS 501c3 determination letter to receive the discount on your subscription. Please note: the discount does not apply to platform fees.
There is no long-term contract for use of The Food Corridor. We just ask for 30 days notice if you want to deactivate your account.
Onboarding Flows is a monthly add-on feature to a Food Corridor subscription.
Access to the base feature is $19 per month with tiered pricing based on the number of checklists assigned that month. That way, you only pay for what you use.

Testimonials
“The Food Corridor has saved us so much money in admin time and increased our ability to be hands-on with our clients. I used to spend hours on a murder mystery chase trying to track which payments applied to which dates. Now, renting the kitchen is pretty much on auto-pilot.”
-- Hannah, Portland Mercado Kitchen
“The level of customer service they provide is unbelievable, always returning emails in under 24 hours and most of the time within less than an hour! There really is no other platform out there that is this customized to the commercial rental kitchen industry. We are so happy to partner with them!“
-- Lauren, SAE Kitchen
“It handles 90% of my back office administrative tasks for me, and I increased my sales by 60% in the last 11 months. TFC has been a huge addition to our kitchen.”
-- Holli, Oceanside Commercial Kitchen
“The Food Corridor platform helps us manage many more clients than our previous system. We were able to see a 50% growth in clients after moving onto TFC.“
-- Thomas, Kindred Kitchen
“I can’t sing the praises of your scheduling software enough! As you can probably see from our account activity and monthly revenue, we’re actively adding 7-10 new clients a month, and I don’t know how I would do it without The Food Corridor.”
-- Melissa, Vida Kitchens
“The Food Corridor platform allows me to stay out of scheduling and concentrate on helping current clients and looking for others to bring on board. I love that part of my monthly fee goes towards advertising…that’s helped me to brand my kitchen and reach out to new areas”
-- Lisa, Chiknegg
