Given how convenient it is to play some buttons and make someone take dinner at their door, the food delivery is not likely to fall into popularity in the short term. Wendy’s is looking to meet with the division demand when opening hundreds of delivery kitchens only in the coming years. The tastes of Uber Eats, Doordash and Grubhub will handle orders.
Wendy’s plans to open 700 kitchens of this type in the US. UU, United Kingdom and Canada in 2025, since associated press reports. The locations will be mainly in the main cities and the first 50 must be in operation this year.
Reef technology, which already administers around 5,000 calls “ghost kitchens,” will open Wendy’s locations and hire workers. Wendy’s will take around a sales cut of six percent, which is expected to reach at least $ 500,000 per year in each kitchen.
The concept of Ghost kitchens has existed for several years. They are unhealthy kitchens that make food orders only for delivery or collection, some run out of existing brick and mortar restaurants. Other fast food chains have experienced with the idea, including Chick-Fil-A and Chipotle. Meanwhile, YouTuber MrBeast uses ghost kitchens for the chain of hamburgers, which has more than 900 locations.
