Executive summary

The economic and political performance positively affected Israel’s CFS market in 2006

The economic growth that was shown in 2006 had a positive impact on the performance of the consumer foodservice market. The economic improvement and the stable political situation increased consumer disposable income as well as demand for foodservice products, as consumers felt confident from a personal safety point of view, and able from an economical point of view, to go out and spend their leisure time in foodservice outlets. Overall, several consumer foodservice outlets such as cafés/bars, FSR, fast food channels and convenience stores were positively affected by this economic and political development.

Growing demand for healthy food products moves consumer foodservice channels to alter menus

The growing health awareness in Israel during the last year of the review period moved many consumer foodservice channels to change their menus and to offer several healthy meal options. The ongoing trend in Israel is toward consumption of healthy products such as low calorie/low fat products, organic or vegetarian food, and whole meal products. According to a survey that was conducted by Globes in 2006, more than 60% of Israelis consume low calorie or diet products on a regular basis. As a result, consumer foodservice channels such as Spagetim Ltd, Lechem Erez Ltd, Aroma Espresso Bars Ltd, or even McDonald’s and Burger Ranch started to introduce healthy food products such as Easy Royal from McDonalds, Chef Range from Burger Ranch, healthy salads and whole meal bread from Aroma Espresso Bar Ltd, Lechem Erez and other companies.

Chained outlets are gaining ground

Israeli consumers showed growing interest in chained consumer foodservice channels in 2006. The main reason for this growing popularity is related to the unique services and products offered by these chained channels. Chained channels are based on the success of one model and replicating it in other locations and cities. Chained outlets offer consumers several advantages such as modern design, a large variety of products, unique products that are produced locally such as bread and other bakery products in the case of Lechem Erez.

This development was reflected in the dynamic performance of almost all chained formats, with chained specialist coffee shops and convenience stores fast food, being the two areas where the biggest increase in sales took place. Several specialist coffee shops such as Aroma, Arcafe and Joe Café recognised the strong demand for franchised branches and intensively opened new outlets. In addition, energy companies realised that great revenue can be achieved through developing retail spaces in the premises of their petrol/gas/service stations, and this gave a boost to the number of convenience stores.

Strong competition in the consumer foodservice market

The consumer foodservice market is characterised by strong competition, given that apart from the chained outlets, the market is dominated by vast numbers of independent players. Consumer foodservice is also regarded as one of the most risky markets in Israel, due to the high number of businesses closing down. In particular, the growing popularity of chained specialist coffee shops that was reflected in the increase in the number of outlets, negatively affected independent specialist coffee shops as chained channels, such as Aroma Espresso Bar Ltd, were promoted intensively in different media channels; something that increased consumer familiarity with the brand. This development caused many independent cafés in Israel to close down during the last few years of the review period.

CFS is expected to show positive performance over the forecast period

The expected positive economic performance of the Israeli market and the predicted continuation of political stability are expected to positively affect the performance of consumer foodservice. The growing popularity of chained outlets, mainly cafés/bars and fast food outlets means that they will be the major contributors to growth over the forecast period. In addition, the growing health awareness will lead many players to increase the variety of products and services to meet the growing demand for healthy eating.
