Distinguished Foods Commercial Kitchen is a family-owned business that has been a cornerstone of Seattle’s small food manufacturing community for over 25 years. As one of the city’s earliest commercial kitchens, it has served as an incubator for countless food entrepreneurs, many of whom have grown into successful, independent brands in the region’s thriving culinary scene.

Originally owned by Samuel Bell and now operated by his son, Claiborne Bell, Distinguished Foods continues to offer more than just kitchen space. The team provides wraparound support to emerging food businesses, assisting with permitting, licensing, banking, insurance, and connections to retailers and distributors. Their mission is simple: to reduce the barriers to entry for local food startups and help them not only launch, but sustain and scale their businesses.

With a deep commitment to community and entrepreneurship, Distinguished Foods Commercial Kitchen remains a vital resource for the next generation of small food businesses in Seattle.
