Executive summary

Consumers reduce their spending on dining out

Consumer foodservice in Taiwan experienced slow growth in outlet numbers, transactions and value sales in 2008. Taiwanese consumers became more price sensitive as a result of the economic downturn, and reduced their spending on dining out. High-end restaurants experienced the greatest decline in value sales, as consumers visited lower-priced restaurants and business people reduced their spending on business lunches and dinners.

Fast food and street stalls/kiosks expand their offer of coffee

Fast food and street stalls/kiosks aggressively expanded their offer of coffee products in 2008, and this had a negative impact on value sales of cafés/bars. At the same time, the intensive coffee marketing campaign by 7-Eleven attracted the attention of consumers who did not have a regular coffee drinking habit. This boosted overall coffee consumption in Taiwan and strengthened the competitive advantage of cafés/bars.

Price competition intensifies

The price competition in consumer foodservice intensified in 2008. All players launched discount and promotional campaigns, in a bid to stimulate value sales. In some promotions, players offered the lowest prices for more than 20 years, in an effort to attract increasingly price-sensitive consumers.

Chained outlets drive value growth

Chained outlets drove value growth of consumer foodservice in 2008, especially for cafés/bars and fast food. In addition to improved economies of scale, chained outlets benefited from consumer trust in the quality of food and service.

Value sales expect growth over forecast

Value of consumer foodservice in Taiwan is expected to grow over the forecast period. However, year 2009 constant value expect to decline due to the impact of the global economic downturn. Reduced frequency of dining out by Taiwanese consumers, coupled with discount prices offered by players, will further contribute to the decline in constant value in 2009.
