Andrew Munday

Andrew Munday is the Co-founder and Chief Operating Officer (COO) of Local Food Group, which operates Local Kitchens, a concept that allows customers to order from multiple local restaurants in a single transaction. This business model is designed to enhance the dining experience by providing "micro food halls" where customers can mix and match menu items from various restaurant partners, making it easier for them to enjoy diverse culinary options.

Before founding Local Kitchens, Munday was one of the early employees at DoorDash, where he gained significant experience in the food delivery industry. His background includes a focus on operational efficiency and the challenges faced by restaurant operators seeking to expand their reach. Munday's insights into the operational difficulties of opening new locations led to the creation of Local Kitchens, which aims to streamline this process for restaurant partners while maintaining high standards of service and hospitality.123

Munday's work at Local Food Group reflects a broader trend in the restaurant industry, particularly in response to changing consumer preferences and the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic. The company has been expanding its locations, aiming to meet the demand for quality dining options in suburban areas as more people move away from urban centers.12
