Capital efficient option for restaurateurs
For a long time, the traditional foodservice industry has been divided into four primary in-person segments: full service, quick service, eating & drinking, and retail host. All of these have an initial cost of operations that is a significant barrier to entry for many who dream of being a restauranteur or wish to grow existing brands.
For a while, the popular entry point was food trucks, which can be less capital intensive, but still require significant commitments and aren't a good fit for everyone.
Flexible on demand kitchens, like Curbside Commissary, often give aspiring restauranteurs the best of both worlds. As the lowest-cost entry point, with a typical initial cost of under $30,000 and a time to open of less than 6 weeks, it's a great fit for many operators.
