In addition to investing in this company, Travis Kalanick is engaged in his new start-up – CloudKitchens. The businessman does not speak about it, but it is known that it is a service for renting equipped kitchen facilities for restaurants to cook food skillfully. The businessman buys cheap real estate in various countries, including China and India, and turns it into a comfortable and functional space for cooking that customers order through delivery. This makes it possible to unload the main kitchen of the restaurant, using it only for visitors.
Due to the fact that the premises from CloudKitchens are located in or near the city center, the delivery of food is as fast as possible, thus increasing the level of customer service.
