Kitchen United CEO Jim Collins said: “Delivery is the future of the restaurant business, and Kitchen United provides a unique solution for the culinary industry.

“Kitchen United enables restaurant operators and independent food professionals to expand into new markets or offload burdensome delivery operations by using our turnkey back of house infrastructure, as opposed to investing in traditional brick and mortar locations, allowing for diminished risk and highly favourable cash on cash returns.”

Cali Group, a holding company that comprises global restaurant chain CaliBurger, has invested additional funding to support Kitchen United’s expansion efforts into other trade areas in southern California.

According to Kitchen United, the fresh food delivery market is expected to reach 17 billion by 2020.
