A Cloud Kitchen—also referred to as a “ghost kitchen” or “virtual kitchen”—is a commercial kitchen space that provides food businesses the facilities and services needed to prepare menu items for delivery and takeout. Unlike traditional brick-and-mortar locations, cloud kitchens allow food businesses to create and deliver food products with minimal overhead. It relies entirely on online orders placed through online food aggregators or an online ordering-enabled website or mobile app.

This Financial Model presents an advanced 5-year financial plan for a startup or operating Cloud Kitchen and is a flexible tool for owners to forecast business financial and operational activities.

It includes assumptions and calculations of Order Sources (Food Delivery Platforms, Website, Phone Orders, etc.), Revenue through 2 service types (Food & Drinks Orders and Catering Orders), Cost of Services, Payroll (Direct, Indirect, Contract Delivery Drivers), Operating Expenses, Fixed Assets & Depreciation, Financing through Debt & Equity and Exit Valuation assumptions in case of a potential sale of the business.

The structure of the template follows Financial Modeling Best Practices principles and is fully customizable.

Detailed instructions for the functionality of the model are included in the Excel file.
