Into invisibility: Cloud Kitchens
Reducing costs and increasing profit; the benefits of a cloud kitchen are clear, but unfortunately the model is not suitable for all businesses. Strong branding and a prominent online presence with their own website and availability on multiple delivery platforms are key to keeping the restaurant in customers' minds and make this model successful.
Brands that can take advantage of their established reputation and operate on a larger scale are likely to excel, so it seems to be a logical choice for those big names, whether they operate by themselves or through a franchise system.

Does public liability insurance need government help?
Insurance industry insiders say Australia’s public liability insurance market is becoming unsustainable and is already unaffordable for many small businesses. Glenn Ross, CEO of MECON Insurance, is calling for a uniform national scheme where the cost of claims is compensated by the government.
“The issue [of unaffordable public liability insurance] can be attributed to a societal trend towards increased litigation, the increasing average cost of court settlements and the unpredictable cost of bodily injury claims for insurers,” he said.
