Executive Summary

Apr 2019
Consumer foodservice continues to grow, thanks to increased mobility

In 2018, the consumer foodservice market in Germany continued its strong performance, recording higher growth in terms of value and transactions compared to the previous year. Per capita spending on eating and drinking out in Germany is among the lowest in Western Europe, so there is still substantial untapped potential for the industry.

More frequent consumption out of the home – from breakfast to snacks

In 2018, the most important factor influencing the growth of the German consumer foodservice market continued to be the favourable economic environment and the high level of employment. As a result, consumers are increasingly able and willing to spend more on high-quality foodservice, against the backdrop of a growing share of single-person households and a tendency to cook less at home.

More outlets adopt digital approach and delivery-only outlets start to emerge

In 2018, independent operators remained dominant in the German foodservice market, especially in cafés/bars and full-service restaurants. Conversely, chained operators account for the majority of value sales in self-service cafeterias, street stalls/kiosks and limited-service restaurants.

Consumer foodservice poised for further growth with favourable demographic trends

Over the forecast period, consumer foodservice in Germany is predicted to record further growth in terms of transaction volume and value sales. As the industry is far from saturated in Germany, the ongoing economic growth is predicted to result in rising consumer demand for consumer foodservice across all categories in the coming years.
