China Foodservice Market Trends
Increasing Demand for Vegan food
Chinese consumers are becoming more health aware that their needs for healthier substitutes for a wide range of consumer goods have strongly impacted the Chinese food and beverage sector. When China had less food security, meat was treated as the most important and famous eating food. But the times are changing, and Chinese people are noticing the negative side of eating an abundance of meat. Nowadays, health and weight concerns are the main reasons Chinese people reduce their meat intake. The Chinese plant-based meat sector is growing every year. Although some European countries and the US are showing faster growth, China is one of the largest consumers of vegan meat, representing about one-fourth of the world's market. Non-vegan Chinese people are open to vegan meat. According to a study by the Good Food Institute, 86.7% of people surveyed claimed to consume plant-based meat products despite over 90% of respondents not identifying as vegan. The top-selling brand of plant-based meet La Mian Shuo collaborated with Vesta Food's brand HUICUI to introduce a plant-based pork option, and Nestle's Harvest Gourmet brand has also performed exceedingly well. They accounted for the highest number of sales in the plant-based meat sector.
Home Delivery Channel is the Fastest Growing Segment
Home food delivery is likely to register significant growth in China, as online ordering reduces customer waiting time. The use of new technology is thriving in the Chinese food industry, with foodservice operators using e-menus, online reservations, mobile ordering, and payment apps. KFC China teamed up with technology giant Alibaba Group to launch a mobile app that will allow customers to pre-order and pay for their food before they get to the restaurant through the mobile app. Following this, McDonald's also began using mobile order-and-pay at some of its restaurants in China to keep up with the growth in new technology among customers. Growing demand for pizza and burgers from the young, affluent Chinese population is one of the key reasons driving the home delivery segment. Many players in China have partnered with websites, such as Ele.me, Fanting.com, and Waimaichaoren.com, which provide full menus from various restaurants and ordering and home delivery food services that consumers can access from their smartphones; with the rise in the advent of digitalization. Independent restaurants offering home food delivery are also quickly gaining popularity in China, especially among busy urbanites, and may become an important service that is used to differentiate the existing establishments by providing more value to the consumers.
