Nashville, the legendary home of country music and the famous Nashville hot chicken tenders, is a vibrant foodie community bursting with potential for a new restaurateur. If you’re ready and willing to meet this challenge, you’ll want to consider the dark/ commercial kitchen model, which can help you to open your own delivery-only restaurant business within weeks and with as little as $30k in start-up costs.

CloudKitchens helps you with your Nashville commissary kitchen by providing a space and most of the equipment you’ll need. In this delivery-based model, your role will be to receive orders, cook up the food you’re passionate about, and hand it off to a delivery driver–it’s really that simple. No need to invest upwards of a million dollars just to build out a brick-and-mortar space, just to invest in dozens more front-of-house staff members.

Restaurant operators have plenty of options for excellent areas in Nashville. We use data to strategically select our ghost kitchen locations, placing them in the parts of Nashville which are home to customers who frequently order delivery or takeout. Add another unique food joint to the trendy Green Hills landscape, feed busy music execs and hungry artists in the famed Music Row, or make a name for yourself among the food fanatics of Midtown.

CloudKitchens will allow you to minimize overhead so you can maximize profitability and focus on the actual craft of cooking. That way you can win over Nashville locals and tourists alike while seeing quicker returns on your investment than you might with a traditional restaurant.
