What inKind offers the James Beard Foundation community
Upfront Financing
We provide capital for you to expand, open a new location or grow your business.

As we buy food and beverage credit from you, there are no loans or cash repayments, you only incur cost when a guest comes in to use the food and beverage credit.
Additional Partnership Benefits
Enhanced Guest Experiences
Guests receive bonus dining credit and exclusive perks, including seamless checkout, VIP experiences and gifting through the inKind App.
Marketing Support
inKind markets partner restaurants with a proven approach that increases customer visits, bill size and guest loyalty.

We currently partner with large and small operators, from the MINA Group and José Andrés' Think Food Group to Julie Petrakis of The Ravenous Pig.

And now, we'd love to partner with you!

inKind Success Story: The Ravenous Pig
Julie and James Petrakis have been dazzling diners since 2007 at The Ravenous Pig. Their work has garnered some of the culinary world's top accolades including coveted James Beard Award nominations.

Based in Winter Park, Florida, the menu changes regularly to take advantage of the peak flavors of each season, with the restaurant sourcing from local vendors in the Sunshine State wherever feasible.

They reached out to inKind in 2017, intrigued by inKind's unique model as they sought help to buy their building. What they found was a life-long capital partner. inKind has continued funding Julie and her team over 10 times. The Ravenous Pig has used inKind for multiple projects including renovating the parking lot, launching a beer garden and marketing during COVID as they iterated to include a general store.
"inKind should be part of every restaurant's financing strategy."
