With the increasing frequency of dining out in pivotal cities like Lagos, there has been an expansion in domestic and international fast-food chains. Residents in Lagos spent USD 125.4 per capita in dining out in 2022, representing 34% of total food expenditure. Fast-food consumption is popular among the residents owing to the affordability of the menu options and the convenience of consumption. The growth of online delivery services has also helped in improving the QSR landscape of the country by assisting the newly opened fast-food franchises in spreading their brand name to a wide base of customers. As of 2021, almost 97% of residents declared that they had ordered food via Jumia, one of the leading online food delivery services in Nigeria.
  • FSR holds the second major share of the market. In the full service restaurants (FSRs) segment, Asian cuisine is expected to be the second most popular cuisine by market value.

Also, owing to its close proximity to top tourist destinations in Africa, Morocco, Egypt, and Kenya, Nigeria is expected to attract more visitors from the Asian continent in the future.

Foodservice expansion driven by tourism, as Lagos emerges as the fourth most visited city in Africa, with visitors drawn to its rich culture and cuisine.

  • Quick service restaurants (QSRs) occupy the largest share of the Nigerian foodservice market, owing to the high rate of consumption of fast food in the country. The market is characterized by local and international franchising models while it continues to expand and evolve.

Owing to the high propensity of visitors in the country, casual and fine diners have expanded in the country to cater to this base.

This can be attributed to the 49.26% market share occupied by African cuisine in the sub-segment for other full service restaurant (FSR) cuisines.
