In the upcoming years, the business is anticipated to grow rapidly as fast-food restaurants expand into new and developing regions.
Future market developments, however, might be somewhat impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic’s residual impacts.

North America dominated the worldwide food service industry in 2021, generating over USD 989.0 billion in revenue annually.
