Canada-based ghost kitchens operator JustKitchen has signed a royalty-based virtual kitchen services agreement with India-based Cloud Retail Solutions.
The agreement marks JustKitchen’s entry into the Indian market, where the company will offer its food brands for delivery.
As part of the agreement, Cloud Retail Solutions, which does business as Kitchens Centre, will be responsible for all services related to order intake and fulfilment. This includes food preparation, packaging and associated support for order pick-up by third-party delivery services.
Meanwhile, JustKitchen will be entitled to a percentage of net receipts on all orders.
The Canadian ghost kitchens operator will also offer training to Kitchens Centre’s personnel, provide access to its manual and portal, conduct inspections, and support the launch of a mutually agreed marketing strategy.
JustKitchen co-founder and CEO Jason Chen said: “We are excited to enter the large Indian market, which is yet another new market for JustKitchen in 2022.
