Work in progress...

2. The vast majority of food delivery
currently takes place in traditional brick
and mortar restaurants that are not
optimized for delivery and represent only
3% of the market. Today, online delivery is
a high priced luxury product with a very
poor experience. Everything about the
restaurant experience is designed for
walk-ins and reservations. And while
delivery is growing as a segment, many
operators are forced to trade-off the
dine-in experience with a booming
delivery business.
The Problem

3. The food delivery market is growing at a
compound annual growth rate of 27.9%,
expected to reach $16.6 billion by 2023.
Today delivery orders represent just 3%
of restaurant business, but are on track
to eventually capture 40% of the market.
Food Delivery

4. The advent of food delivery apps that
generate consumer demand has created an
opportunity for 'delivery-only' restaurant
concepts. Without the overhead and expense
of having to create a physical restaurant a
delivery only restaurant can focus 100% of
their efforts on making great food that travels
well. The advantages of delivery only models
include:
• Low Upfront Costs
• Lower Operational Costs
• Faster Expansion
• Experimentation
• Optimized Delivery

6. Almost half of all restaurant revenue will
be generated from delivery in the future.
The shift to delivery is being driven by the
propensity of digital natives to discover
and order their food from mobile apps like
UberEats and Grubhub. Digital immigrants
are moving their ordering to mobile as
well, but they continue to be influenced by
name recognition created by thousands
of hours of television advertising for
national restaurant brands. Ghost Kitchen
can capture that residual goodwill by
resurrecting brands (national or local)
that are no longer in a particular market.
Captured Goodwill

7. Ghost Kitchen's plan is to bring back the
greatest entrees of bygone national and
local restaurants. By licensing their brands
and offering limited menus we'll be able to
multiply nostalgia by the demand
generated by food delivery applications.
From a consumer's perspective they'll be
able to order the same fried clams they
enjoyed at Howard Johnson's, the Oh,
Baby™ Back Ribs they used to order from
Bennigans, or the cornbread from the
Black-eyed Pea.

9. Cloud Kitchens
The advent of cloud kitchens allow for the creation of high profit,
low risk restaurant ventures like Ghost Kitchen. By simply renting
250 square foot kitchens from kitchen providers in key locations
we can serve the delivery market with very low upfront cost.

The initial plan is to optimize the model in Dallas and then
partner with various delivery-only kitchen providers like
CloudKitchen to enter markets throughout the United States.
