Consumer foodservice in 2024: The big picture
Consumer foodservice in the Czech Republic experienced positive growth in current value sales in 2024, albeit at a significantly slower pace than in the previous three years. The government’s fiscal consolidation package, introduced in January 2024, brought significant industry changes, most notably raising the VAT rate for soft drinks and draft beer from 10% to 21%.
2024 key trends
Between 2022 and 2024, the Czech Republic experienced significant fluctuations in inflation, which had a profound impact on consumer spending. Inflation peaked at 18% in 2022, drastically reducing purchasing power as wages failed to keep pace with rising costs.
Competitive landscape
The Czech Republic is becoming an increasingly attractive market for major US limited-service restaurant chains. KFC and McDonald’s continue to strengthen their presence, capturing a larger share of the consumer foodservice market and becoming increasingly common across Czech cities.
Independent foodservice developments
Independent foodservice establishments continue to generate significantly higher overall value sales compared to their chained counterparts, with this advantage extending to the number of outlets and total transactions made throughout the year. However, many smaller independent owners face mounting challenges due to rising operational costs, which impact them more severely than large chains.
What next for consumer foodservice?
In the Czech Republic, consumer foodservice has been significantly impacted by the VAT changes implemented in January 2024, leading more customers to forgo purchasing drinks with their meals in favour of value-driven options, such as lunch menus. This shift has provided independent restaurants with a competitive edge, as lunch menus are more prevalent in independent establishments than in chained outlets.
