Lowering Barriers to Entry in Manufacturing

Shared Spaces. Scalable Dreams.
COWE’s Co-Manufacturing Facilities offer women entrepreneurs the infrastructure and resources they need to move from home-based production to market-ready manufacturing—without heavy capital investment.

Create. Collaborate. Comply.

Shared industrial-grade production units tailored for small and early-stage women-led businesses. These co-manufacturing hubs are designed for sectors like food processing, apparel, handicrafts, and packaging, offering professional environments that meet hygiene, compliance, and quality standards.

Key Features of the Initiative:

  • Shared Infrastructure: Access to fully equipped manufacturing spaces with industry-grade tools and machinery.
  • Hygienic & Standardized Environments: Ensuring compliance with safety and production norms.
  • Training Support: Guidance on production techniques, quality control, packaging, and scaling operations.
  • Cluster-Based Collaboration: Opportunities for learning and resource-sharing among entrepreneurs in similar sectors.
  • Cost Efficiency: Minimized overheads make it easier for women to launch or expand production-based businesses.

Why This Matters:

  • Breaks Capital Barriers: Offers a solution for those who can’t afford private manufacturing units.
  • Encourages Formalization: Helps shift women from informal setups to structured, scalable ventures.
  • Builds Capabilities: Ongoing training and peer interaction fuel innovation and growth.
