What is a Ghost Kitchen?
Sometimes also called cloud kitchens, or virtual kitchens, these kitchens allow food businesses to operate with no storefront and at minimal costs. The kitchens are ready to use and available for lease to anyone, whether they are a catering business, an enterprising foodie, a delivery-only brand, or anything in between.
DOB has all kinds of Kitchens - big or small. Flexibility is at the core of our offering - anything from a couple of evenings, all mornings, all day on Tuesdays, to only a few times a week!
- List your underutilised commercial kitchen facilities and target a growing market of hospitality professionals wanting to tap into the booming food delivery market.
- Without even realising it, you’re currently sitting in an empty or underutilised kitchen that is perfect for those looking for an easy and flexible answer to their delivery concepts, manufacturing, catering operations, bakery ideas, mobile food vending or menu testing concepts and more.
- Are you one of the huge waves of foodies trying their hand at the growing food delivery game?
- Ghost Kitchens provide a flexible and affordable platform for you to ‘set up shop’, without actually setting up a shop! Lease a kitchen for only the hours you need and with the kitchen requirements you need.
- Why pay for hours/days/months that you’re not using the kitchen? Focus your budget on your budding business, not worrying about the huge expense of fitting out a brand new restaurant.
Frequently asked questions
How does DOB support me through the entire process?
We won’t leave you out in the cold! DOB deals with all the admin so you can focus on food! You have access to all documents including the dual-signed agreement. We also manage all invoicing and payment processes for the entire duration of the contract.
DOB requires all insurances, licensing and permits to be submitted and verified prior to any bookings being made. DOB are here to answer all enquiries. Questions are always answered within a 24 hour period.Am I required to sign a long term contract?
DOB is all for flexibility and ease. You only sign contracts with the timelines that work for you.
No long term commitment is required. From the caterer seeking a kitchen for 3 days to the franchisee looking to sign an 18-month agreement to test a new market. We don’t believe in a one size fits all model.How do I edit or remove my listing?
Business plans change, we get it. So you can edit your profile as much as you like prior to a booking being made. Once a contract has been signed though you will need to honour your agreement and what you offer. We don’t believe it’s fair to change the goal posts after a booking has been placed.
If you need to change an agreement after a contract has been placed (eg business is booming and you need more hours in your rented kitchen), then we encourage continued negotiation between host and renter.Is it safe? Can I trust DOB to look after my Kitchen?
Before any bookings are made DOB requires all essential documents to be verified through their platform. These include all insurances, licensing, and permits. Upon kitchen host approval, a service agreement with scope of work, pricing, and payment schedule is generated.
All kitchens, hosts and tenant profiles are open for reviews by previous bookings. At DOB, we believe this transparency strengthens credibility and helps in decision making for all involved.
