Sales hit by uncertainty and decline in tourism
In 2025, Israel’s consumer foodservice industry experienced a significant decline in value sales, driven by the ongoing regional conflict, and a sharp decline in both local and tourist demand. The war’s impact on daily life, coupled with rising costs and economic uncertainty, led to reduced discretionary spending and a marked drop in restaurant reservations and footfall across all channels. Despite these challenges, the sector demonstrated resilience through rapid digital transformation, innovation in fulfilment, and a surge in plant-based and sustainable offerings, with independent restaurants and agile chains adapting quickly to shifting consumer needs.
