We're scaling rapidly in new markets to help more great brands thrive," All Day Kitchens CEO Ken Chong said in a statement. All Day Kitchens' focus is on small and independent restaurants . These businesses have been hit particularly hard in the past 18 months because many don't have the technological infrastructure or capital to shift to off-premise operations. The ghost kitchen platform allows these restaurants to expand their reach by leveraging satellite kitchens across a market without providing any upfront costs. All Day Kitchens also lets customers order from multiple restaurants operating from a satellite kitchen. In a statement, Darnell Johnson, owner of Chicago's Home of Chicken & Waffles, called All Day Kitchens' model the "future of the industry." "The partnership has been an unbelievable way to expand our brand reach and take us to another financial level. The volume of guests coming in who discovered us through an All Day Kitchens location keeps growing," Johnson said. All Day Kitchens will use its latest funding to target growth in Texas and Southern California. The platform is the latest in a string of companies in the ghost and virtual kitchen space to receive funding, indicating investors' confidence in the future of delivery and pickup business. C3 recently raised $80 million to grow its virtual brand presence, for example, while Reef raised $700 million and Kitopi raised $60 million last year . Also in the last year, Virtual Kitchen raised $20 million , JustKitchen secured $20 million and Local Kitchens raised $25 million in June . All of these companies are targeting market expansion, so the category is ripe for competition. Recommended Reading:
