BRING YOUR GHOST KITCHEN TO LIFE.
ADD A BRAND-NEW REVENUE STREAM.

OUR SOLUTION WILL MAKE BUILDING YOUR GHOST KITCHEN EASY!

With the restaurant scene suddenly changing due to COVID-19 cases, you’ve had to act fast – optimizing your takeout and delivery services or pivoting rapidly to retail. Currently, with dine-in restrictions due to COVID-19, most restaurants are experiencing challenges managing through the minimum dining room capacity that operators say is needed to make reopening work financially. But what if there was a way to help offset these restrictions with an entirely new revenue stream? The US Foods® Ghost Kitchens program can make it easier than you imagined.

WHAT IS A GHOST KITCHEN, AND WHY WILL IT BENEFIT YOU?

Also called dark or virtual kitchens, Ghost Kitchens are foodservice facilities set up for delivery-only or carryout meals. It’s not a traditional dine-in space, but an invisible hub for your virtual brand, designed to boost your off-premise food sales. They can provide a double door to profits with:

  • A lower investment cost than existing brick-and-mortars
  • The ability to use your existing kitchen
  • Expanded customer reach with a higher profit margin
