Mark reached out to us when the pandemic first started in March 2020. 49 Square Catering was one of the largest caterers in the Bay Area when he approached us. As COVID took over the world and shut down businesses, catering came to a standstill. Mark had the kitchen, the staff, and the expertise to cook world-class food, but Mark did not know how to succeed on delivery or online. Forward Kitchens currently powers ten digital storefronts for him through which we have brought him $26,141.17 last week on track for $1.3 million in revenue run rate. Mark tells us that most of his other catering colleagues went bankrupt, but because of Forward Kitchens Mark has been able to keep his lights open.
You saved my business from the pandemic - I really appreciate and am thankful to you guys. Without Forward Kitchens we would've been out of business long ago.
Business and execution with Forward Kitchens has been incredible. They are 40-45% of our total sales, and it's only increasing week over week.

Sandy and her brother opened their food truck, KO Sisters Seoul Food, in the midst of the coronavirus pandemic in May 2020. They had watched how the food truck movement became more and more popular in Portland, and decided to take a leap of faith to start the business during unprecedented times. With a newly built food truck and Sandy's expertise in the kitchen, the only thing missing was the know-how on how to succeed in delivery and online. Forward Kitchens currently powers a single digital storefront for KO Sisters Seoul Food which has brought them on track for $100,000 in revenue run rate. Business has been going so well that the siblings are opening a second location in mid-November. The new location will be also powered by Forward Kitchens on opening day.

R'jabs wings is a two-location minority-owned business outside Atlanta, Georgia. When they became interested in virtual restaurants they connected with Forward Kitchens with some skepticism about the concept. Within just two weeks they had launched 3 virtual brands at their flagship location and were selling more than double the delivery orders than with just their Physical brand. They added 3 virtual brands at their second location shortly after and now across their business 6-7 out of every 10 orders they get are from their virtual brands.
I had heard other restaurant owners have some success with virtual brands but the volume of orders Forward Kitchens brought us far exceeded the results the owners I know have had.
Forward Kitchens helped me hit my daily target goals and eliminate downtime in the kitchen due to the COVID pandemic. I would recommend the company to any restaurant.

Hana comes from a family that has a history of running Ethiopian restaurants. She began her restaurant business when she was introduced to the owner of the DC-based Zburger chain, Peter, a year ago during the COVID pandemic. She was quickly drawn at the quality of the food that was being served and saw an opportunity to capitalize on the restaurant. She currently runs three virtual storefronts and is looking forward to exploring more. One word to describe Forward Kitchens: "Fantastic!"

India's Flame is a multi-generation family run restaurant in Phoenix, Arizona owned and operated by the Pabla family. When COVID-19 hit, the restaurant saw a drastic decrease in orders. Param and Sona stepped in for their parents, and began to think about how to adapt to the quickly changing restaurant industry. They had thought about trying to run their own virtual brand but had no knowledge on how to go about doing so. Forward Kitchens powers two digital storefronts for the Pabla Family at India's Flame, often placing in Uber Eats Top Eats. Business is now so busy they are looking to expand their physical kitchen to bring on additional digital storefronts with Forward Kitchens.
With Forward Kitchens, we honestly get too busy at times! The order volume hits ridiculously high numbers. We are very thankful for our partnership with them
Those are just a handful of examples that show what Forward Kitchens can do. The concept of ghost kitchens and virtual restaurants is still relatively new, but Forward Kitchens knows how to take full advantage of its possibilities.
