Top Five Trends Shaping the Consumer Foodservice Industry in 2026

In 2025, the consumer foodservice industry remains vibrant despite pressures on discretionary spending. Wellness-aligned menus, flavour exploration and beverage personalisation are all considerable drivers for consumer excitement and operator innovation. On top of this, third-party and first-party fulfilment providers are vying for loyalty through a wide and evolving toolset of value propositions.

Driving Foodservice Traffic Through In-Person Experience

As increasingly digital consumers prioritise convenience in their purchasing decisions, online delivery’s share of restaurant sales has skyrocketed. With third-party delivery fulfilment being the biggest engine for growth, foodservice operators are seeing their margins eroded by merchant fees. Thriving, let alone surviving, is a juggling act when ingredient, shipping, and labour costs continue to rise.
