UAE Food Service Market Trends and Drivers:
The growth of the UAE food service market is attributed to both a strong tourism sector and consumers living increasingly dynamic lifestyles. Moreover, its role as a center of international tourism and business has created a continuous flow of visitors, thus generating a continual demand of a wide range of food experiences. In addition to this, the greater number of foreigners, and their exposure to different culinary options as thetravellers and their new-found tastes in food, which in turn have led to growing trend of dine-out culture, has resulted in growth of the food svc. Efforts by the government to develop tourism, as well as large-scale events such as Expo 2020 Dubai, have given a boost to the hospitality industry, where there is an increase in demand for food provision (in the form of hotels, restaurants, and catering enterprises). In addition, the increase in quick-service restaurants (QSRs) and casual dining establishments that are targeted at time-starved lifestyles is an important driver of market growth.
A feature of the UAE food service market undergoing trends is that it is increasingly emphasizing the provision of healthy and environmentally responsible dining choices in response to consumers’ growing nutrition related and environmental consciousness. Plant-based and organic menu contents are becoming increasingly popular as restaurants adjust to this new trend in what restaurateurs want. Technology, including online ordering platforms and contactless payment systems, has been integrated into the industry in a way that has greatly improved convenience and efficiency for customers. In addition, the number of cloud kitchens and food delivery options is continuously growing as a result of the e-commerce boom and the desire for home-to-door meals. In addition, luxury dining options such as themed restaurants and fine-dining venues remain popular among high-end clientele who want new culinary experiences and are likely to dominate the UAE food service market during the forecast period.
