Will cloud kitchens outlast the pandemic?

In the future, cloud kitchens and restaurants will co-exist in the new F&B landscape. — COOKHOUSE

Naysayers have called the cloud kitchen model (where food is prepared in a space designed purely for delivery) a ‘Covid business’ or ‘pandemic business’. The inference from this is that it simply will not outlast the pandemic and is likely to fade away into oblivion once things return to normal.

But in this regard, the naysayers are likely to be wrong. The cloud kitchen model seems firmly set to be a permanent fixture in the F&B landscape both now and in the future.
