Dear MEL Topic Readers,

Cooking food for over 100 restaurants: How a ‘ghost kitchen’ is adjusting to life in a pandemic

Food delivery service is on the rise especially when people are afraid of dining out or traveling because of the coronavirus pandemic. For example, Uber is carrying much fewer passengers but delivering much more food under the name of Uber Eats. With such third-party delivery service operators, struggling restaurants can make up some of the lost business or create new business. There are also new service enterprises that are moving one step further, called ghost kitchens or cloud kitchens. They have no signs, tables, or servers like ordinary restaurants do. They are located in economically convenient places to cook and deliver food. All they have are the central kitchen, cooks, and delivery men and vehicles. They basically prepare meals as instructed and deliver them to the customers of their clients. A ghost kitchen operator in Dubai has over 100 restaurant clients across the Middle East and prepares over 200,000 meals a week.

It sounds like an efficient food business model upfront. But will there be enough margin to share among the restaurant, Ghost Kitchen, and delivery service?

Enjoy reading the article and think if you want to check who cooked your next delivery meal.
