A cloud kitchen utilizes a commercial kitchen for the purpose of preparing food for delivery or takeout only, with no dine-in customers?

They are basically restaurants or kitchens that operate only on a delivery-only model and do not provide dine-in facilities.

The basic premise behind cloud kitchen economics is very simple. Cloud kitchens do not have a physical space for diners to sit and eat.

They rely completely on online orders for business and thereby are heavily dependent on food aggregators such as Zomato and Swiggy.
