Increased tourist arrivals from Asia led to great exposure to diverse Asian cuisines
- Quick service restaurants (QSRs) held the highest market share by foodservice type. 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. It is projected to register a CAGR of 10.91% by value over the study period. South Africa is a diverse country with a multicultural population. This exposure has led to a greater appreciation and demand for Asian flavors and dishes. In 2022, Nigeria witnessed the most tourist arrivals from Niger and India, with 9% and 5% of the total arrivals that year, respectively, followed by China, accounting for 4%. 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.
- Cloud kitchens are projected to register a CAGR of 21.80% by value during the study period. Hephie's Cloud Kitchen and Hearth Cloud Kitchen and Cafe are some of the prominent cloud kitchens operating in Nigeria.
