Executive summary
Consumer foodservice shows signs of saturation
Value growth for consumer foodservice was below inflation rates for 2007. The performance of core categories such as cafés/bars and FSR slowed down in relation to review period CAGR, as penetration reaches saturation. Nonetheless, consumer foodservice saw fair development in terms of innovation, menu variety and ambience, with various new forms and formats cropping up in 2007.
Trends focus on quality
Premiumisation and improved quality were key trends for Greek consumer foodservice in 2007. However, the trend towards quality was translated into a mixture of features, sometimes focusing more on ingredients and food, sometimes on service and convenience and sometimes just on venue décor. Greek consumers continued to seek distinctive character at consumer foodservice outlets, singling out new and rising formats that offered quality values. With a focus on quality, fast casual dining made a strong appearance, while attention also focused on dynamic business cafés and café-restaurants, developed to serve the needs of young professionals.
Domestic companies and brands still lead
Strong sales of fast food ensured Greek company Vivartia’s leading position in value share with its burger fast food brand Goody’s. In addition, the busy living conditions of contemporary Greeks resulted in high rankings for two more fast food players, Everest and Gregory’s Microgevmata, both active in lucrative bakery products fast food. Vivartia’s popular specialist coffee shop brand Flocafe was positioned fourth in 2007, contributing to Vivartia’s lead in companies’ ranking.
Chains still underdeveloped in Greek consumer foodservice
The split between chained and independent operations heavily leans towards the latter, which had a strong dominance in 2007. Specialty coffee shops and pizza 100% home delivery/takeaway show significant developments for chained operations, such as the entry of Costa in specialist coffee shops. However, the areas with the strongest sales such as cafés/bars, FSR and street stalls/kiosks are still dominated by independents. Greek consumers show strong loyalty to familiar neighbourhood businesses and tend to appreciate uniqueness and inimitability.
Future performance to stabilise
Consumer foodservice is expected to see continued constant value growth over the forecast period, benefiting from the development of niches, particularly self-service cafeterias. Long working hours and limited free time will continue to drive sales for 100% home delivery/takeaway. Overall, chains are expected to continue grow faster than independents. However, chains will pose little threat to independents, as most branded operations will focus on competing with each other.
