BANGKOK -- Thailand's leading fast-food restaurant chain, Central Restaurants Group, will set up 100 "cloud kitchens" across the country within five years to strengthen its food-delivery business and capitalize on growing demand following the new coronavirus outbreak.
Cloud kitchens are centralized hubs for food preparation and delivery. Central Restaurants, a unit of retail-to-hospitality conglomerate Central Group, said Monday that the company had opened its first cloud kitchen in Bangkok's Lad Phrao district last week.
