I think that will be niche if it is at all viable. Most of the shared economy type companies flamed out as it turns out specialization and scale offen matters.

I think that will be niche if it is at all viable. Most of the shared economy type companies flamed out as it turns out specialization and scale offen matters.
I think other models are much more likely. In Brooklyn, the pizza joint Roberta’s opened up a delivery only kitchen after building a successful restaurant. Others in nyc have opened restaurants after a successful ghost kitchen. In the food truck craze, often the successful trucks leveraged their brands to open physical restaurants.
I think industrial kitchens initially allow restaurants that already have a brand to send chefs to the industrial kitchen to handle the delivery load, saving the cost of restaurant space and making delivery logistics easier. I think industrial kitchens will also make it easier for a young chef to start building a brand with less capital.
I don’t ever see the model working where you go to apartment 301 to grab your takeout order.
