NEW YORK, April 14, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Reportlinker.com announces that a new market research report is available in its catalogue:
Chain Full-Service Restaurants in the U.S.
http://www.reportlinker.com/p02076270/Chain-Full-Service-Restaurants-in-the-US.html#utm_source=prnewswire&utm_medium=pr&utm_campaign=Restaurant_and_Food_Services
Driven by aggressive menu innovation, value-driven price point strategies, positive momentum from macroeconomic drivers, and a brighter consumer outlook, full-service restaurant sales will increase 3.4% in 2013. The recovery is bypassing more "middle class" casual chains, such as Olive Garden, Red Lobster and Chili's. Thanks in part to value pricing and aggressive menu innovation, same-store sales performance at these types of destinations has at least been mixed. Many family restaurant chains, which rely disproportionately on lower-to-middle-income consumers, remain vulnerable to price sensitivity and reduced guest traffic. However, 2013 sales trends suggest building momentum, which could result in sales above our current expectations.
Foodservice Landscape in the U.S.: Chain Full-Service Restaurants can assist industry participants in understanding industry and consumer trends shaping this highly competitive environment, focusing on the family and casual restaurant segments.
Key content includes:
Studying the degree to which 17 different factors influence consumers' decisions to select a restaurant for a special dinner with friends, family or colleagues and which are the most important factors in that decision, with accompanying demographic analysis and industry responses/examples.
Provides up-to-date guest traffic analysis for family restaurants and casual restaurants by demographic, with daypart and chain vs. independent share; and 2009-2013 HH income trends by restaurant brand.
