Let’s collaborate.

We work directly with restaurants and government, private, and community organizations to support sustainable and intentional growth at all stages of the business lifecycle. Our consulting services can stand alone or serve as a force-multiplier to other economic development initiatives.

“We founded Prepshift to empower small businesses with the tools, insights, and strategies they need to thrive—not just survive—while building sustainable and inclusive communities.”

— Chef Irene Li, CEO & Co-Founder

The restaurant industry can be a real labyrinth with so many challenges that can trip a team up and truly cripple an operation. Prepshift helped us navigate those often muddy waters with their guidance and expertise, going above and beyond with their training, platform, and general support. We cannot recommend them enough, whether you are new to the industry or a seasoned vet!"
