In celebration of International Women’s Day, Coho Collective has released an updated version of its popular Women-Led Businesses Box, filled with a variety of ten small-batch food products and handcrafted goods from women-led local businesses in its commissaries. The box is available online through their online shop Coho Market for pick-up or delivery.

Our Women-Led Business Box is just a taste, and we encourage people to go out into their city and learn more about female-driven small businesses and support them.”

Coho Collective’s curated Women-Led Box ($79) items are largely plant-based and feature:

True Nosh Black Garlic, Sweet Potato & Apple (Hoisin) Sauce

“I’ve been part of the Coho Commissary family for the past two years, and the community they have built is so welcoming, inclusive, and encouraging,” says Kailyn Chun, owner of Salty Cabbage. “I am proud to have my product in this box filled with other brands by talented women.”

For the month of March, Coho Collective is also showcasing the women of Coho through a special social media initiative, featuring photos, stories, and more. The campaign kick-starts on International Women’s Day, March 8th on Coho’s Instagram page. Support women led businesses!
