Dhaval Udeshi, Co-Founder, Chrome Asia Hospitality, and Awadesh Jha, Director, Food & Beverage, Holiday Inn International Airport Mumbai, answer queries that pop up about the rise of cloud kitchens, the pitfalls to avoid if starting one and whether the trend is here to stay...
DO CLOUD KITCHENS HAVE THE POTENTIAL TO PROVIDE A GROWTH MODE TO THE HOSPITALITY INDUSTRY?
Dhaval Udeshi: "Technology has not just impacted but disrupted various aspects of our lives, including the relationship we have with food. India's food aggregators have changed the dynamics of the hospitality landscape impacting the standard and model of restaurants and food delivery space. Most of the credit for this change can be given to the pandemic that kept every individual indoors for almost two years. Along with it, demographic advantage has been a huge driving factor. Genz and millennials who are the young employable workforce dominating the smartphone era are leading to increased internet penetration which have expanded the market for cloud kitchen owners to establish themselves across cities and townships."
