Kitchen rental solutions enable clients and restaurant operators the chance to expand their business into the digital age at a reduced upfront cost, in a shorter period of time.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
What is the minimum lease length for a kitchen space for rent?
Chef Collective has a policy of at least 12 months lease. However, during this period of time, should you have any issues surrounding kitchen location, amenities etc, we will be happy to help you in adjusting as necessary.
Is there any benefit to renting a smaller kitchen space?
The smaller the kitchen size, the lesser the overall associated operating costs. The main benefit of operating a smaller cloud kitchen is the agility to ‘test the waters’ of new business and operational strategies in a more affordable format. Therefore, you have the ability to test the proposed strategy before committing to a long-term lease.
How about scalability?
As you are not tied down by fixed costs, your restaurant will have the ability to transition between location or size at its own discretion. This can be achieved as easily as moving from one package to another! Chef Collective provides the perfect platform for your business to branch out to new cities, where you can take your restaurant to the next level. With locations in Brisbane, Melbourne, and Sydney, the sky's the limit in regards to how big your business can become!
Does kitchen rental work for all restaurants?
The customisable nature of our cloud kitchen service means that we can absolutely accommodate any type of restaurant and address any miscellaneous needs that they may have. Through our service, your kitchen will have access to all of the necessary materials needed for food production.
