All restaurants in Egypt, no matter their concept, share the same dilemma: Having super expensive rent for the space in addition to needing tons of equipment that require even more money. Sure, some restaurant chains can easily afford that, but the same can’t be said for up-and-coming Egyptian food concepts.
Finding the right space with just the right decor IS a big challenge, but if you’re an aspiring foodie, you’re going to love what Food Nation is doing with Cloud Kitchens. But what are Cloud Kitchens, you may be asking—well, let us tell you!
So, What Are Food Nation's Cloud Kitchens?
If you’re a small food business owner or you’re building a new food concept through a social media page, you’re going to love Cloud Kitchens. See, Food Nation's Cloud Kitchens will help these up-and-coming outlets to make their mark on Cairo through its 42 fully-equipped kitchen units that serve 42 different cuisines. These units will have affordable rent, as it’ll only be providing kitchens, not restaurants.
As a customer, you’ll be essentially getting an upscale, selective food court experience with multiple cuisines all in the same place. Food Nation will also provide delivery for every unit through its hotline (16596) and an app.
The best thing about this concept is that its restaurants aren’t permanent—you can go every week and find a different eating experience! So it’s the perfect option for foodies and restauranteurs who want to promote their projects, while also not spending much cash.
Food Nation can be found in Tivoli Dome in Nasr City, with plans of expanding the project to Tagamoa, Zamalek, and 6 October City already in place.

Why Should You Care About This New Concept?
If you’re not an aspiring restauranteur, you may think that while Cloud Kitchens is a cool new helpful concept, it really won’t affect your life in any way—but you’d be wrong.
Not only will you be getting to experience new food concepts every time you visit Cloud Kitchens, but you’ll also be getting to witness restaurants and online foodies laying the groundwork for their brands. In a nutshell, you’ll be witnessing a new side of the Egyptian food industry as it rises from its beginnings.
Since we have the whole Cloud Kitchens concept covered, it’s time we dig into WHAT Food Nations Is
Simply put, Food Nation is a food and beverage company established in 2020 to support new food businesses. The company did the same thing in the UAE in 2021 and is currently trying to expand to other countries, which is why it (obviously) came to Egypt.
It’s important to highlight that this company actually specialises in creating kitchen spaces for restaurant owners and social media foodie pages that need more exposure.
