FOOD VENDORS

Are you ready to share your culture, your food, your family with the community, have tons of fun, AND make money doing so??

One of our food vendors made close to $20,000 in less than 6 hours!!

We would LOVE to have the previous years food vendors join us again, and also bring in some fresh faces too!!

The whole purpose of this event is to showcase and serve foods, and share the culture from Asians and Pacific Islanders to the community, and ultimately, to the World!!

Last year around 5,000 people; men, women, and kids, showed up to our 3rd annual Taste of AAPI Food Festival in the West Bottoms in Kansas City.

The weather was perfect; around 74 degrees, sunny and no wind.

We are on year number 4 of doing this awesome food festival, and it's grown from around 1,000 attendees, to 5,000, and we're expecting much more this year.

This year, we're marketing it more and people already know about the event, PLUS it's on Saturday May 3rd, which is the first Saturday of the month, which means that people will be heading down to the West Bottoms to shop and dine on First Friday weekend!!

If you're interested in becoming part of something fresh and still in it's infancy stage, and want to be part of something Bigger and Better... to be part of sharing your culture and your foods, we'd love to have you join us this year!!

We are only accepting a maximum of 2 food vendors of the same countries/ethnic groups (examples: 2 Cambodian groups, 2 Filipino groups, 2 Japanese, etc, etc...) so first come, first gets in.

I can write on and on, but most of the fine details about Temporary food permits and and Health inspection and such, are all on a separate PDF which I will send to everyone once you will fill out the form on the Teal Colored link below.
