The Thai foodservice market is projected to witness a CAGR of 4.19% during the forecast period, 2022-2027.

Around 20-30% of the dine-in quick-service restaurants were closed considering the pandemic situation. the remaining outlets were just opened for takeaways and home deliveries. Accordingly, many restaurants shifted their focus to delivery and takeaway, and this segment of the industry saw around 30% more growth than before.

Over the medium term, the country's tourism industry is likely to be one of the primary factors of growth for its foodservice industry once the situation gets better. According to the country's Department of Tourism, such significant growth in tourism is attributed to domestic stability, the development of low-cost airlines, and considerable government measures to boost tourism.
