Organic
Organic ingredients are widely regarded as healthier, tastier, and void of dangerous chemicals and preservatives. Using organic ingredients supports farmers that prioritize the health of the environment and their communities and encourages sustainable agricultural methods that reduce the use of synthetic pesticides and fertilizers that are harmful to both people and the environment.
Functional
Functional foods provide additional vitamins, minerals, probiotics, antioxidants, and other helpful nutrients that go beyond the requirements of basic nutrition. These meals aid in the management and prevention of chronic illnesses like cancer, diabetes, and heart disease. They support general health and well-being and are highly regarded for their preventive nature. They provide a practical approach to increasing the number of nutrients in our diet.
Plant-Based
Plant-based foods are crucial for boosting health and preventing chronic diseases. According to The China Study, diets rich in plant-based foods—such as fruits, vegetables, whole grains, and legumes—are linked to a decreased risk of heart disease, cancer, and other chronic diseases, but diets rich in animal-based foods are linked to a higher risk. Many specialists now support increasing the consumption of plant-based foods as a means of enhancing general health as a result of these discoveries.
Locally Sourced
Locally sourced foods are healthier, fresher, and far more environmentally friendly. By investing money in the local economy, they also support nearby farmers and communities. They also aid in lowering the carbon footprint connected with food's long-distance transportation. Additionally, because it is simpler to track the food's origin and the circumstances under which it was grown or farmed, locally sourced foods enable greater transparency in the food system.
The Vision
Kokolato membership NFT sales will fund the development of a three-story Shophouse. Each floor holds a symbiotic revenue-generating project that provides value to the community. The ground floor is home to the Parlor and Culinary Innovation Lab, the 2nd floor is dedicated to the Lounge, and the 3rd floor is where we will film our online courses. Each business on each floor creates its own revenue stream while simultaneously adding value to the others.
Building Sacred Spaces
The Kokolato Shophouse aims to become one of world's most sought-after destinations for innovative plant-based cuisines, unparalleled culinary performances, pop-up events, and educational content regarding the future of food. The four spaces outlined below share the same Shophouse, enabling them all to add tremendous value to one another.
Mobile Ops
The Culinary Innovation Lab provides Kokolato with the foundation needed to expand its operations. Mobile Food Trucks & Vending Carts create the most value at the lowest cost, enabling Kokolato to appear in high-traffic areas we wouldn't otherwise have access. Our stunning vehicles provide marketing value, as well as the opportunity to capitalize on the most profitable locations.
