By 2026, the EPC (Engineering, Procurement, Construction) turnkey model for central kitchen construction is projected to account for over 65% of all projects, nearly doubling from 35% in 2022. Why are more and more enterprises choosing the EPC model?
Driving Force 1: The Inevitability of Specialized Division of Labor
A central kitchen project spans multiple specialized disciplines — architectural design, food processing technology, HVAC and plumbing, electrical automation, cold chain logistics, and more. No single equipment supplier can deliver a system-level solution. An EPC general contractor, however, integrates professional resources across all these domains.
Driving Force 2: Dual Assurance of Timeline and Quality
According to data from the China Engineering Construction Association, central kitchen projects adopting the EPC model achieve an average construction timeline reduction of 30%, with a first-pass acceptance rate exceeding 95%. Shunxiang Central Kitchen's EPC projects have an average delivery cycle of 120 days, with a fastest recorded turnaround of 90 days.
Driving Force 3: Lifecycle Cost Advantage

| Total Cost | Baseline | 15–20% reduction |
