This is the second -and last- part of the two part series, "The 2020 Guide to Virtual Kitchens", if you missed the first part, we recommend you read it first here.
Like grandma's legendary banana bread, sometimes starting from scratch yields the best results. Ghost kitchens eliminate much of the cost, risk and concerns entrepreneurs have about starting a restaurant and instead offer a safe, lean alternative. Here are some tips to consider:
Making more money and living the dream of owning a successful restaurant business is absolutely possible. Take Simon Mikhail, for example, owner of Si-Pie. What started as a Chicago-based pizzeria with a clearly defined niche transformed into a bustling business with multiple locations, spurred in part by increased exposure and sales via third-party delivery apps such as GrubHub.
Another entrepreneur, Joel Farmer, experienced a lack of demand for his hand-crafted burgers in Brooklyn, New York, before being approached by Uber Eats. He reimagined his existing kitchen to create craft burgers and launched a virtual restaurant, The Brooklyn Burger Factory, which now does 28x as much business as his original concept.
If you already own or operate a restaurant and want the third-party delivery business to work for you, there are a few things you should know to be successful like Joel and Simon. Here are some insights from experienced ghost restauranteurs:
