Questions?We are here to help.
What if I need to change my equipment or location?
One of the most significant benefits of renting a kitchen is the ability to scale your operations as needed. If you decide you need more (or less) space after spending some time in your rental kitchen, we’ll do our best to accommodate the change.
How customizable are kitchen rentals?
Most commercial kitchen rentals can be customized to accommodate your specific needs. If your cooking style or cuisine of choice requires particular tools, we can help make the necessary arrangements.
What is the minimum lease duration for a rented kitchen space?
Ghost kitchens can be leased for as few as 12 months, so there’s little commitment and even less risk involved.
Are commercial kitchens profitable?
Thanks to their comparatively low overhead, commercial kitchens have the potential to turn an incredible profit. A commercial kitchen’s profitability depends on several factors, like the location, branding, and operating systems at play.
How does a commercial kitchen help your existing restaurant grow?
Operating a commercial kitchen concept and business model allows restaurant owners to serve a wider clientele while minimizing overhead. Commercial kitchens also give you the flexibility to try out new menus or even new restaurants, all within one commercial kitchen space.
How much do commercial kitchens cost?
The cost of opening and operating a commercial kitchen will vary. When you work with CloudKitchens, you can get your ghost kitchen up and running with an investment as low as $30k (compared to the average $1 million for a brick-and-mortar, traditional restaurant).
