What is a micro food processor?
Micro and small food processors make, or want to make, specialty food product/s in a commercial kitchen setting. This kitchen may be home-based (initial start-up for limited types of products), shared-use, or commercial. Target markets range from local to international. What is key to these businesses is that they are producing a specialty food – one with a distinctive element or quality. The range of potential food and beverage products made by micro food processors is endless – for example, specialty cheese or meat processors, quality jams, salsas and tapenades, herbal teas and nutraceuticals such as oyster shell calcium supplements. In some cases, the special feature may have a community and/or regional perspective.
