From Area Development Magazine:

“We grew up in Huntington, our families have been here for generations. […] This is home. We went to big cities for different opportunities and had a great time doing so. When the pandemic hit, not only did we find an opportunity to restructure our lives and our businesses, but at the same time, expansion became necessary, and we couldn’t think of a better place than Huntington. I’ve gotten to fully partner with my sister and my husband, in my hometown, while putting in the first plant-based restaurant here. It’s a very special moment for us.†[…]

“[The] decision to locate[ Kitchen 17 ]in Indiana is a testament to our state’s entrepreneur-friendly and pro-growth environment. […] We’re inspired by their creative, strategic and innovative approach to continuing to thrive through the pandemic and excited to see them grow in the Hoosier state.â€
