> because I'm finding restaurants are increasing the price of those for whatever reason ($2.50 at some). Soft drinks are easy money. Receive, unpack, refrigerate,sell. A soft drink that costs $0.10 to buy in a store and sells for $2.5. That's a 2500% profit margin. If the delivery system is not a bottled/canned productbut comes in a keg, and can deliver 50 litres instead of 330ml then the margin is higher. Of course the expenses of electricity, storage, labor, remain, but it makes a sweeter deal for the restoranteur to employ their staff for 10% of the time with 2500% margin. I remember watching Gordon Ramsay in many of his episodes stating that restos are/should be operating with a 25% margin.
