Okay.
Got it.
So, you know, it's funny.
When you have a restaurant, you realize that no matter how busy you are, no matter how long the lines are out the door, you only have so many seats and there are only so many hours in the day that some people can actually come in and order and you can create revenue.
So, you know, we saw that this meal...
delivery kit industry was really booming and we thought we saw an opportunity to, you know, let's see if we can create these meal kits around the awesome burgers that we're making a Boston burger company.
Uh, you know, a big percentage of our customers that come in are either tourists or college students that are in Boston, you know, coming in for three, four, five years, whatever it is, then they go back to their home States.
But, uh,
a lot of them have gotten in touch with us and say, you know, I really miss Boston Burger Company.
Jesus, why don't you guys open something up, you know, in my state near where I live?
Maybe that's gonna happen someday.
We see some potential with franchise, but we said, you know, let's give this meal delivery kit a shot.
So, you know, it was back last winter, I would say February, we started doing some research and we started, you know, putting together the processes and the systems to send out these burger kits.
And so far, it's been a success.
I mean, we're fairly new, we're only into our third month, but the orders are coming in, the hits are coming in on the website, people are giving us great feedback.
Our first month, we sold about 100 kits.
The second month, we sold about 150.
This month, we're really starting to figure out, you know, what works, what doesn't work.
We're probably slated to sell about 400 kits this month.
The revenue is not huge yet, but it's climbing and it's growing.
