Invigorating the Prepared Food Delivery Industry

Re-engineering the Prepared Food Value Chain

"From the recipe to your mouth"

The Challenge

What Drives Your Food Delivery Choice?

The entire food ordering industry is becoming commoditized, leading to an unsustainable and unprofitable shift towards lower-quality offerings.

projected global online food delivery market by 2028

Recipe Owners

Lack of motivation to create due to lack of opportunities for monetization

Cloud Kitchens & Restaurants

Lack of time, resources, and opportunity to create new recipes

Consumers

Lack of visibility over their food including ingredients, nutritional content, and cooking technique

The Solution

How Does YumChain Work?

1

Mint & Protect

Recipe owners secure their IP on the blockchain and mint NFTs containing the recipe, ingredients, nutritional data, and associated media content.

2

Subscribe & Cook

Cloud kitchens subscribe to access thousands of authentic, verifiable recipes. Each order placed rewards the recipe owner automatically through smart contracts.

3

Choose & Enjoy

Consumers gain full transparency over ingredients, nutritional content, and cooking technique. AI-powered suggestions help match recipes to dietary preferences.

Each Time an Order is Placed, The Recipe Owner Gets Rewarded Accordingly

Franchise as a Service

Solving the Franchise Problem

Restaurant franchises lose millions annually to inconsistent recipe execution and opaque royalty collection. YumChain digitises the entire process, enabling master franchise owners to receive their dues automatically through smart contracts.

The Problem

Franchise Management Today

  • Master franchise owners have no real-time visibility into recipe compliance across locations
  • Royalty collection relies on self-reported revenue with limited verification
  • Recipe IP is shared via PDFs and manuals with no usage tracking
  • Franchisees can deviate from approved recipes without detection
The YumChain Solution

Digital Recipe Licensing

  • NFT-based recipe licensing — each franchise location accesses recipes through verifiable digital tokens
  • Automated royalty distribution — smart contracts ensure master franchise owners receive their dues on every order, in real-time
  • Usage tracking & compliance — every recipe access is logged on-chain, providing full transparency
  • Scalable globally — digital licensing works across borders without complex legal frameworks
