Executive summary

Value sales on the increase

Consumer foodservice in the Czech Republic registered declines in terms of outlets and transactions in 2007, but continued to record positive growth in current value terms. Czech society is becoming more and more westernised and demand for higher-quality services is growing. Czechs now dedicate 20% of their total spending on food on away-from-home food. With the standard of living growing quickly and continuously, people do not hesitate to spend more if they get value for money. Although disposable incomes are increasing, this is balanced by the rising costs of housing, electricity and healthcare. The increasing popularity of shopping centres helps value sales of consumer foodservice operators based in retail locations. Fast food outlet and specialist coffee shop numbers are on the increase, while the number of typical pubs is more or less the same as over the rest of the review period.

Czech Republic as a stepping stone for international players

The Czech Republic is one of the most stable and prosperous post-communist countries. GDP rose by 6.6% and growth in gross household income was the greatest in the new EU countries in 2007. The positive economic development and expectations for a relatively small market in Central Europe predestine the country to attract foreign companies that want to launch their businesses in former communist countries. Autogrill, Starbucks or Coffee & Co have recently introduced their outlets, while Burger King, Coffee Republic and Zabka have announced plans to enter the Czech market. Bio Cafes, a bakery fast food operator owned by foreign capital, was even established in the Czech Republic and started its expansion into Central Europe from here.

Positive results of local operators lead to their expansion

Domestic chains performed well in 2007 and became increasingly notable competitors for international players. Strong expansion and consolidation of the full-service restaurant chain Svejk Restaurant (run by Daos Plus sro), the beer bar chain Potrefena Husa (Pivovary Staropramen as) and the bakery fast food operator Paneria (Eureca Shops sro) was recorded in 2007. Running premises mainly in Prague or Brno, they are now focusing on regional centres and entering other Central European markets. Other domestic operators that run only a few outlets performed well and announced their expansion within the country.

Coffee takeaway growth expected

Coffee takeaway is becoming more popular in the Czech Republic. Chained coffee specialists already offer takeaway in plastic cups, although it only accounts for 3% of value sales. Additionally, Czech consumers are also starting to favour takeaway coffee offered by the fast food chains now widespread in the country, both domestic and foreign, including McDonald’s, KFC or Paneria. Starbucks, which launched its first outlets in January 2008, will support this trend, however undeveloped it is.

Chains performing better than independents, franchises on the rise

The majority of consumer foodservice operators remained independent in 2007. Chained operators were active primarily in fast food (McDonald’s, KFC, Paneria, Bio Cafes), and cafés/bars (Coffee Heaven, Coffee & Co, Potrefena Husa) as well as in FSR (Hacienda Mexicana, Pizza Coloseum), with the majority of them based on the franchising principle. Sufficient earnings for both sizes of contracts for this form of ownership lead other players to implement it in their businesses as well, eg Ceske Drahy as (Czech Railways) will renovate its foodservice operations on train station premises on this principle.
