What is a hole-in-the-wall business concept? According to Collins Dictionary, a “hole-in-the-wall business is a business, especially a restaurant, that operates from very small premises.”
The pandemic has brought about new opportunities that are more beneficial to both businesses and consumers. The hole-in-the-wall concept is one of these.
Most hole-in-the-wall food businesses are found in small neighborhoods. Unlike big restaurant chains, they offer good food that is cheaper due to lower overhead costs. It also offers consumers a sense of adventure when they visit an unfamiliar location.

Mrs. Wharton which started with cakes has previously announced that it will launch several food brands.
It is now applying the hole-in-the-wall concept especially after they finished setting up the Mrs. Wharton Cake Boutique where people can come and take out cakes for their celebrations.
