Introducing Hone, a culinary talent agency from Whetstone Media.

Culinary Talent Concierge -

What has become apparent is the field of culinary arts is missing the intermediary support afforded to talent in other sectors like sports, speaking, art and entertainment. We are undoubtedly in the age of talent, which makes representation an even more urgent matter. Beginning in 2020, “Creators of color”, and most definitely Black business owners, experienced unprecedented inbound interest. When companies realized representation was good business, many in our business did not have good representation.

As everyone became a media company and sharing content for highly tailored audiences became more prolific, at Whetstone our role in the world shifted, and now we’re shifting with it. 

Publishing, production, platform, talent. We are doing it all.

A brand or star?  Whatever your offer, we’ll help you make it sharper.
