Rising Demand for Online Food Delivery and the Increased Adoption of Technological Solutions to Bolster the Global Cloud Kitchen Industry

Cloud kitchen is a business concept increasing over the years with the booming food delivery business, rising globalisation, and the increasing consumer preference for continental food and fast food. This increase has dramatically escalated with the advent of the COVID-19 pandemic, which has further enhanced the demand for online food delivery, as dining out was no longer feasible. Cloud kitchens help different restaurants offer their services through third-party apps, increasing their reach while also assisting them in reducing purchasing and maintenance costs. This allows them to put their sole focus on the food aspect only. In addition, the rapid technological advancements, such as the aforementioned third-party apps, help enhance the consumer experience by making the ordering process highly systematic, further increasing the overall efficiency of processes like production, delivery, and payment. These factors are expected to significantly contribute to the market growth in the forecast period.
