The catering industry is growing steadily, with a target of breaking through 430 billion yuan this year.

With the popularity of leisure tourism and the impact of the number of tourists coming to Taiwan, the domestic catering industry not only continued to maintain the basic requirements of food, but also developed different levels of consumer customers through branding, chain, service process standardization and information technology. As a result, the operating revenue exceeded 400 billion yuan in 102 and climbed to 424.1 billion yuan in 104, of which restaurants accounted for 85%, beverage stores accounted for 11%, and other catering industries accounted for 4%.

Revenue for the first quarter of this (105) year reached RMB111 billion, a record high for a single quarter over the years, with an annual increase of 3.1% and positive growth for 28 consecutive quarters. It is estimated that under the influence of store exhibitions, creation of new brands, and expansion into department stores, cinemas and other business districts to enhance customer attraction and table turnover rate, the annual revenue of the catering industry will exceed RMB430 billion.

According to statistics, due to the high customer collection effect of department stores, coupled with the prevalence of Taiwanese food culture and exotic cuisine, the department store food street holiday crowd surge, food and beverage revenue accounted for 18.9% of the total department store revenue, about 60 billion yuan scale, for tourist hotels and hotels catering revenue 2.3 times.
