Native American Indian Center of Central Ohio
NAICCO Cuisine Official Announcement
After long and careful consideration, we here at NAICCO have decided to officially retire NAICCO Cuisine. Undoubtedly, we’ve had some amazing, unforgettable times out on the food truck scene with and through NAICCO Cuisine. However, we now need to shift our attention and efforts to other priorities at NAICCO. That is, recent grant funding has provided us the unique opportunity to fully launch NAICCO Outdoors, a project significantly focused on helping Native People deepen their relationship with Mother Nature. This project is one that we have been dreaming of initiating for years, so it goes without saying that we are thrilled to be able to deliver such meaningful programming—which we wholeheartedly believe will be nothing short of beneficial to those who personify our mission and vision work at NAICCO. That being said, the majority of our time and energy in the coming years will be devoted to making sure that NAICCO Outdoors is implemented with integrity and on behalf of the greater good.
We are deeply appreciative and humbled by the love and support that has been extended to NAICCO Cuisine and the bigger picture of what the operation has stood for and signified over the years. In our wildest dreams, we could not have ever imagined such an awesome experience. A huge THANK YOU goes out to each and every person out there who helped NAICCO Cuisine get off to a phenomenal start, achieve an array of what felt like unending successes, and more so, for helping our Native People realize that such a win for everyone involved was possible—both Native and non-Native alike.
You can reflect on NAICCO Cuisine and the incredible journey this unique Native American street food trailer traveled over the years after its unveiling amid the pandemic by watching the videos, reading the articles, and looking through the photographs on this page.
On a very similar note, the NAICCO Cuisine food trailer has been posted for sale on UsedVending.com. The monies gained from this sale will be used to further enhance and help sustain the NAICCO Outdoors project. If you’d like to help us, make this sale, please feel free to share this information with any and all interested parties.
Sincerely,
Team NAICCO
