Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
How do I know if a central kitchen is right for my business?
Central kitchens are perfect for any restaurant business that feel they have room to improve in terms of kitchen efficiency. Not only do they provide the opportunity to streamline your processes, they have much lower cost-risks associated with them when compared to traditional restaurants.
What makes central kitchens more affordable than traditional kitchen spaces?
A central kitchen has no need to be in prime real estate areas with high foot traffic. They can be situated a bit further out where rent is cheaper. In addition to this, your operator will help cover costs and difficulties associated with permits, licensing, and more without locking you into a long-term contract.
How do I pick the best location for my central kitchen?

How do central kitchens enable me to expand?
Without the hassle of licensing, insurance, renovations, and more, expanding in a central kitchen is a simple and straightforward process. All you need to do is let us know, and we can set you up with a new location.
