Market Definition

Foodservice is defined as the sale of food and drinks for immediate consumption either on the premises from which they were bought, or in designated eating areas shared with other foodservice operators, or in the case of takeaways transactions, freshly prepared food for immediate consumption. Datamonitor's definition excludes sales through vending machines and is restricted to sales in specific foodservice channels (please see channel definitions below). All industry values are given in Operator Buying Prices that is the amount spent by foodservice operators on the food and drink that they serve and not the amount the consumers spend on food and drinks (Operator Selling Prices - OSPs) in these channels. The difference is the mark up the foodservice operator adds in order to cover their other costs and generate a profit.. This therefore values the industry in terms of the amount of money for which food and drinks manufacturers are competing.The industry is broken down in to four segments: Cafes & Restaurants, Fastfood, Cost and Other. Cafes & Restaurants includes Cafes, Pubs & Bars, Full Service Restaurants, Hotels and Retail locations; Fastfood includes Quick Service Restaurants, Takeaways, Street Vendors and Leisure Locations (cinemas, theatres etc.); Other includes Nightclubs and sales on-board boats, planes, trains or coaches; the Cost segment is characterised by the fact that a subsidy is paid (either directly or indirectly) to one of the actors involved in the transaction, or where the final consumer pays for the food at its actual cost (as opposed to a price that adds some margin to its basic cost).. The cost sector includes the following channels - workplace locations, education locations, hospitals and welfare & services locations. Industry volumes are classed as the total number of visits by individuals to foodservice locations that involve the consumption of either food, or drink, or both. As such, if several people visit one location at once and there is only one bill (e.g. a group dining in a restaurant), the number of transactions is counted as being one for each person in the group. Multiple purchases made during the same visit (e.g. a person buys several drinks bought over a period of time in a bar) are counted as one transaction.. The purchase of drink with food in the same location in the same visit is also considered as one transaction, not two. All currency conversions have been calculated at 2008 annual average exchange rates. For the purpose of this report Europe is deemed to comprise of Belgium, the Czech Republic, Denmark, France, Germany, Hungary, Italy, Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Romania, Russia, Spain, Sweden, the Ukraine and the United Kingdom.
