Pioneering Cloud Kitchen Infrastructure in Mumbai: 13,000 sq. ft. custom facility delivered in 5 months

By Lodha Industrial Park

India’s food service industry is undergoing a decisive transformation, with cloud kitchens emerging as the vanguard of growth. Valued at USD 1.13 billion in 2024, the sector is projected to expand to USD 2.84 billion by 2030, reflecting a CAGR of over 16% (Research and Markets). The rise of cloud kitchens is a game-changer in India’s food industry, enabling delivery-first brands to scale with unprecedented efficiency (IBEF). Online food delivery already commands 12% of the market, and is expected to climb steadily, reshaping how consumers engage with dining.

Nowhere is this momentum more pronounced than in Mumbai—a city defined by speed, scale, and relentless demand. The surge in consumption is fuelling the need for centralized, fully compliant, and strategically placed kitchen ecosystems that can keep pace with the metropolis. At the heart of this transformation stands Lodha Logistics Park, Kurla—Mumbai’s first organized in-city distribution centre. Purpose-built for efficiency and resilience, it offers Grade-A in-city logistics infrastructure with seamless reach to over 25 million consumers across the MMR & Thane, positioning global operators to serve India’s most dynamic market with confidence and speed.

Where Cloud Kitchens Meet Global Standards

Multinational corporations on cloud kitchen industry, precision is non-negotiable. They seek Grade-A, fully compliant infrastructure that upholds global food safety standards, while also enabling operational scalability, sustainability, and speed to market. From densified flooring and integrated gas banks to round-the-clock security and ESG-aligned utilities, world-class cloud kitchen infrastructure is not just about space—it is about delivering an ecosystem where efficiency, compliance, and consumer reach converge seamlessly.

This vision came to life when a global leader in food & cloud kitchen services leased a 13,000 sq. ft. customized cloud kitchen hub at Lodha Logistics Park, Kurla. Designed to meet stringent international standards, the facility was conceived, executed, and delivered in a record five months—a testament to Lodha’s ability to combine speed with precision. The development incorporated 250 kVA of dedicated power infrastructure with 100% DG backup, three exclusive loading docks to ensure swift inbound and outbound movement, and a 2-ton goods lift enabling seamless vertical material flow. To support high-intensity kitchen operations, Lodha integrated 60 KL of water storage along with a 40 KLD effluent treatment plant, alongside densified flooring, a centralized gas bank, and dedicated ODU space for HVAC systems.

Equally critical was compliance. Lodha secured all statutory approvals—including Fire NOC, Occupancy Certificate, Consent to Establish, and FSSAI licensing support—ensuring the client could transition into operations without delay or disruption. This facility exemplifies how bespoke, future-ready infrastructure can be delivered with both scale and certainty in the heart of Mumbai.
