At the Northwest Ohio Cooperative Kitchen (NOCK), we’re committed to helping small food businesses grow from idea to market. Each year, our calendar of NOCK events provides entrepreneurs with the tools, connections, and visibility they need to succeed. From exclusive showcases like From Kitchen to Cart, to community favorites such as Hot Sauce Night and the NOCK Open House, to recognition programs like the Excellence Awards, these events create opportunities for food companies to test ideas, meet buyers, and share their stories. Whether through webinars, in-person networking, or award celebrations, the NOCK is where small businesses find practical support and a platform to thrive.
