As taprooms and eateries prepare to reopen as guidelines relax, there will likely be an increase in open-air spaces that provide ample room for people to return to a sense of normalcy—and BoxPop offers shipping container pop-ups that have the potential to get businesses up and running outside without the overhead of a traditional brick and mortar space.
BoxPop's VP of Specialty Construction Matt Egan describes the experience as "a comfortable, uncrowded experience in the clean, open air," adding that "we might one day look back at this time as a golden age for shipping container food and beverage service." The pop-up solution has the potential to bolster independent restaurants that may be having a harder time adapting to the new normal as compared to larger chains and groups.
