In a few short months (can you believe it’s already March?!), we’ll be ready to reveal the next tenant in our revolving restaurant accelerator, REVeal Kitchen in The Pizitz Food Hall. This innovative idea was driven by a desire to support local aspiring restauranteurs by providing them with a low-cost, low-barrier way to prove their business works. Soon, we’ll start taking applications for the next REVeal Kitchen occupant. If you’re interested (or know someone who is), reach out to our Director of Business Growth, Deon Gordon at deon@revbirmingham.org.

In the months following that decision, the space has undergone a transformation, evolving into a local retail incubator and café. Now, the heart and soul of the marketplace is supporting local businesses and building community in the historic Woodlawn business district.
