The Hill Food Co., 2360 Hampton Avenue, St. Louis, Missouri, is a virtual food hall with 23 kitchens for lease.
Opening in August 2023, The Hill Food Co. is a virtual food hall with 23 commercial kitchens available for lease to caterers and restaurants that want to expand their operations for carryout and delivery using state-of-the-art technology.
It is conveniently located approximately 1/2 mile south of the I-44 and Hampton Avenue intersection.
The parent company has over 100 facilities worldwide, most in the US.
The concept became increasingly popular after the pandemic because consumers were forced to change their buying habits. Restaurant employees did not return to the industry, leaving a severe staffing shortage and being responsible for thousands of restaurant closures.
The concept works great for some and not so well for others! Established ethnic-theme restaurants have successfully served Indian, Thai, Korean, and other cuisines.
Additionally, many failures are due to startups from people who did not know the restaurant industry. It is not an easy job as there are many moving parts and things to keep highly organized to operate efficiently.
The restaurant industry is changing; it has to change because real estate leases and triple net rents are spiraling out of control, and restaurants need to figure out how to produce a larger quantity of food with fewer staff. Ghost kitchens will help in both of these situations.
The Hill Food Co. facility and concept are perfect for:
- Caterers
- Restaurants wanting to expand with limited staff and capital requirements
- Prep kitchens
- Startups
