We support you before, during, and after your incubation period. Our incubator serves as a real launchpad, allowing entrepreneurs to validate the viability of their project and their appeal in the HoReCa sector. We provide them with all the tools to confidently open a sustainable restaurant in Brussels and maximize their chances of success. These 4 months of incubation are also an opportunity to quantify their project and build confidence and credibility before meeting with essential long-term partners (banks, property owners, etc.).

The rent is €1000/month. Group training sessions, support, and coaching are provided free of charge by hub.brussels.

Certainly not! Our team offers you intensive coaching tailored to your needs before, during, and after your incubation at Kokotte. It’s a true supportive community of experts and entrepreneurs who share their experiences and support one another.

Do you offer products and a menu that adhere to fair pricing policies? Is your project aligned with an ethical, responsible, and sustainable approach? Are you planning to open a lasting restaurant in the Brussels-Capital Region? If you answered yes to all these questions, Kokotte is an excellent solution for testing and launching your project!
