FUN PROFESSIONAL PRODUCTS GREAT PROFITS
You will run your own business in one of the most enjoyable ways possible - running interactive Cooking Parties, which are a very social, informative and fun way to demonstrate professional kitchenware. You will be bringing commercial-quality kitchenware into domestic kitchens.
You'll receive extensive sales and business training, and business tools such as management and marketing processes and concepts. You will also be offered regular free training and ongoing support to take your cooking skills to a new level.
The appeal of cooking cuts across age groups, gender and demographics. Whether cooking haute cuisine or kids' meals, our products make both the cooking and the cleaning more enjoyable.
Guests love our Cooking Parties: as well as picking up a few tips, six or eight people in a kitchen almost define the modern social get-together.
What will I earn?
FULL-TIME OR PART-TIME 20% GUARANTEED PROFIT

Why would I become a consultant with The Chefs Toolbox?
HUNGRY MARKET LOW COSTS NO HASSLES
You will discover how much fun it can be to run your own business.
Marketing your business is a breeze as the demand for cooking tips and techniques is enormous. Just think about how many people:
- watch one of the dozens of TV cooking shows,
- buy one of the 5 million cooking magazines sold each month,
- or pay $50-150 to attend one of the many cooking classes that happen every day around the country
Have you noticed that all houses built in the last five years have moved the kitchen back into the centre of the family room?
Despite all this money being spent on cooking, how many people know which tool will make their cooking more fun and effective? Or for that matter, how to use almost any tool in the kitchen?
There are many people looking for help with tools, techniques and suitable recipes:
- parents of young kids
