GrowKitchen CKaaS • Case Studies

Real Brands. Real Kitchens. Real Results.

CKaaS isn’t a concept-it’s a working system that helps founders launch & scale profitable food brands without burning capex or managing kitchens.

How Founders Use CKaaS to Launch and Scale Faster

Every brand below had the same challenge-they wanted to launch or expand a delivery-first food business without taking on the cost, stress or time of setting up their own kitchen. With CKaaS, they plugged into ready kitchens, trained staff, and a fully-managed operational system… and focused purely on brand building and growth.
