Restaurant Operations

One restaurant.
One brand.

Turn your existing restaurant into one additional delivery brand. You can see the operating requirements and estimated economics before you commit.

The launch model

One vendor.
One Sous Chef brand.

A restaurant does not need to add several Sous Chef brands. Each restaurant starts with the one brand built for the kind of kitchen it already is. The seven brands form a portfolio for delivery platforms; different restaurants host different brands.

Why one brand

  • Simpler training
  • Simpler inventory
  • Simpler prep
  • Simpler menu management
  • Simpler quality control
  • Simpler packaging
  • Lower operational risk
  • Faster launch

The path

  1. Your restaurant
  2. Your existing kitchen
  3. One Sous Chef brand
  4. One additional delivery storefront

A restaurant may add another brand later where it clearly has capacity. That is not the launch model.

Which brand fits my restaurant?

Check
my kitchen.

Two questions. The result lists potentially compatible Sous Chef brands. It is a starting point for a partner review, not a guaranteed recommendation.

What type of restaurant do you operate?
What equipment do you already have?

Illustrative estimate. Actual costs vary by supplier, market, portion size, labor rates, waste, packaging and restaurant operation. Contribution is before delivery-platform fees and the Sous Chef 15% share.
