About this model
Clean Kitchen Club is a UK plant-based QSR brand with eat-in, grab-and-go, and delivery formats. It aims to expand beyond London through a multi-format restaurant and delivery model.
The model should build locations by format and apply a new-site ramp to orders, average ticket, and delivery mix. Those drivers determine sales at mature and newly opened sites.
Forecast food cost, labour, rent, and delivery economics at each format. This lets the plan show whether growth comes from owned locations, grab-and-go demand, or delivery-led volume. Use consistent location assumptions so the London base and future expansion are comparable across the whole QSR network.
A turnkey financial model
Live formulas, no hardcoded values
Outputs are driven by live formulas, so the workbook updates from its assumptions instead of relying on hardcoded results.
All assumptions in one tab
Inputs are clearly marked in the Assumptions tab and separated from calculations, making it clear what to change and what to leave intact.
Statements always balancing
For integrated-statement models, the balance sheet, cash flow, and supporting schedules tie through properly.
Distinct schedules for clarity
Debt, working capital, taxes, and cash flow can get messy quickly. We group calculations in clear schedules, not across disconnected tabs.
No hidden macros or external links
There are no unexplained external workbook links or macros to undermine auditability or portability.
Changes flow through the model
Update a key driver and see the impact carry through the forecast, financing, and return outputs. We never use hardcoded numbers in formulas.

Recommended financial model
- Archetype + why: Multi-site QSR / restaurant roll-up P&L with a retail/CPG revenue layer. The business is a site-count-driven restaurant model (revenue = sites × weekly covers × AOV) combined with a nascent delivery and retail revenue stream. A 3-statement integrated model is appropriate given capex-heavy site roll-out (fit-out costs), working capital needs, and need to show path to site-level and consolidated EBITDA. Not SaaS, not marketplace, not SPAC.
- Forecast horizon & granularity: Monthly for Years 1–2 (2022–2023, matching the pipeline slide); quarterly for Years 3–4 (2024–2025). Site-by-site build for Year 1 given named pipeline; cohort-level from Year 2.
- Key drivers & assumptions:
| Driver | Value / Source |
|---|---|
| Sites open at model start (2022) | 1 confirmed (Soho/Piccadilly implied); exact count not stated |
| New site openings per year | 7 sites in 2022, ~10 in 2023, ~10 in 2024, ~13 in 2025 |
| Average weekly orders per site | "Thousands" at launch site; |
| Marketing spend | Virtually zero organic; |
| Week-one profit (single site) | £4k |
- Scenarios (Base / Bull / Bear - which variables flex):
- Base: Site openings per plan (7/10/10/13), AOV £13, 1,800 weekly orders/site, 17% site EBITDA margin at maturity.
- Bull: Accelerated rollout (1–2 additional sites/year), retail CPG line achieves supermarket listings in H2 2022, AOV £14.50, delivery mix climbs to 50%.
- Bear: Rollout slips by 6 months per cohort, AOV compresses to £11 (competitive/consumer pressure), delivery commissions rise to 35%, site EBITDA margins stay at 10%.
- Required sheets / outputs:
- Assumptions - all drivers in one tab, no hardcoding.
- Site Roll-up - per-site revenue, ramp schedule, site-level P&L (revenue, food cost, labour, rent, site EBITDA).
- Delivery Revenue - separate build for platform delivery with commission netting.
- Retail / CPG - simple revenue build for Year 2+.
- Consolidated P&L - aggregated revenue → gross profit → EBITDA → EBIT (including central overhead: management team, marketing, head office).
- Balance Sheet - capex, fit-out depreciation, working capital (payables-heavy, minimal receivables for restaurant).
- Cash Flow Statement - capex per site, operating CF, funding requirements.
- Funding Waterfall - show how much equity/debt is required to fund site roll-out given capex per site and ramp EBITDA.
- Dashboard - site count over time, system-wide weekly orders, revenue, EBITDA, cash runway.

Hey, I’m Alex and I created Finamodel.
Over my years in the finance industry I kept building the same models over and over again. Same structure, same assumptions, different logo. So I started building frameworks to turn them into clean, reusable templates.
Every model here is one I’d actually use for a client, and I personally vet each one before it goes up.
I’m not an expert in every industry, but I’ve built enough models to know what belongs in one. And when something is completely foreign to me, I reach out to my network for experts to work on our models with us.
Having a template library on hand cuts a first build from hours to minutes.
Need help finding your model? You’ll find me in the Finamodel app!
