SoCo Vedge<\/b><\/h2>\n

Say hello to South County\u2019s new vegan food delivery service! Husband and wife team Dean and Julie Couchey rang in the new year by launching their business January 1, 2021, and success has come quickly.<\/span><\/p>\n

As a classically trained chef, Dean set out to prove that vegan food does not have to be boring. The menus are a combination of homestyle and international cuisines inspired by the Couchey\u2019s travels. With a fresh menu updated weekly, SoCo Vedge takes orders midweek for contactless delivery on Sundays. They\u2019ve got vegan food delivery down to a science, especially with help from the RISBDC.<\/span><\/p>\n

Starting a business is definitely not the easiest job in the book\u2014but Dean and Julie took all of their start-up questions to the experts. RISBDC counselor Josh Daly provided the Coucheys with broad information on legal entity, regulatory requirements, and more. He also walked them through crucial processes, including navigating the requirements for food businesses through the RI Department of Health.<\/span><\/p>\n

With Josh and the RISBDC\u2019s help, the Coucheys are enjoying early success for SoCo Vedge. In their words, \u201cIt is great to have the RISBDC to help guide new small businesses. The path for new owners is not easy, but the RISBDC helped us to navigate it.\u201d Josh and the RISBDC are excited to watch their business grow!<\/span><\/p>\n
