Located in the heart of downtown Phoenix on Roosevelt Row, the incubator provides a unique, low- risk opportunity for emerging brands to gain real-world retail experience in a high-traffic, culturally vibrant area. Participants in the incubator rent shelf space to showcase and sell their products, while also benefiting from strategic business development support. This includes training in visual merchandising, customer engagement, pricing strategies, and inventory management. The goal is to prepare entrepreneurs to scale—whether into their own storefronts, regional retail partnerships, or expanded online sales channels.
