With more people travelling for leisure and business, food service establishments are experiencing increased demand to meet the evolving needs of a diverse customer base. Significant international hotel chains are experiencing rapid growth throughout the region, propelling the Asia Pacific food service market expansion.

India is a prominent market for food service, with a population of over 17% of the world. The current value of the food services market in India, covering both dining out and ordering in, is estimated at Rs 5.5 lakh crore. Projections indicate that the market will experience an annual growth rate of 10-12% over the next few years, reaching Rs 9 lakh crore to Rs 10 lakh crore by 2030. This growth is anticipated to be fuelled by strong fundamentals, such as an expanding customer base, increasing consumption occasions, and a rise in supply.
In India, online food delivery is anticipated to grow even faster at a CAGR of around 18%, contributing 20% to the overall food services market by 2030. Moreover, the surge in popularity of food delivery apps and online ordering systems has revolutionised the purchasing behaviour of consumers, ultimately contributing to the expansion of the market in Asia Pacific.
