Increased snacking and indulgence consumption and the growing trend towards health-conscious eating are driving the market growth
Market CAGR for foodservice channel is being driven by the increased snacking and indulgence consumption and the growing trend towards health-conscious eating. Over the past decade, consumer food habits in the United States have undergone a significant shift, with a notable inclination towards snacks and light meals. Busy lifestyles often lead individuals to skip traditional meals, opting instead for on-the-go food choices, including bakery items like doughnuts. The increasing preference for fast food among American consumers is reflected in the 16.23% increase in the average order value for quick-service restaurants over the study period. In 2022, popular fast-food items, including burgers, pizzas, sausages, and meatballs, were priced at USD 8.75, USD 16, USD 8.5, and USD 9.8, respectively. The rising popularity of chicken has prompted American restaurant chains to diversify their menu offerings, with 21% of consumers increasing their taste for chicken in 2021. Vendors like Compass are responding to changing preferences by offering healthier snack options such as doughnut sandwiches with ingredients like chicken and lettuce, indicating a shift towards more nutritious choices.
