QSR and Café Industry

© 2017 CRISIL Ltd. All rights reserved.


Key takeaways

● Organised chained QSR market to grow at a CAGR of 60-70% during fiscal ‘22; resurgence of Covid remains monitirable
■ Consumption impacted with mall closures and restrains on spending on the back of Covid-19 control measures in FY 21
■ Players shut down stores with unprofitable outlook, as retail footfalls expected to be muted in near term
■ Large metros lag smaller cities in terms of recovery; normalcy in revenues expected by Q4 FY 21 and FY 22

● Chained Café market to grow at a CAGR of 50-60% during fiscal ‘22


■ Revenue decline sharper for beverages segment in FY 21, as chains relied on ‘experience’ in the retail oriented business

© 2017 CRISIL Ltd. All rights reserved.


■ Players extending into packaged foods, online delivery to recoup lost revenues in the pandemic era
■ Tea focused players entering the café market will complement the cafe` chain growth

● > 70% of overhead for QSR industry- employee, consumables & rentals
■ Players negotiated lease rentals during the period business was weak (superior brands could save upwards of 50% on this vertical)

● Faster shift towards digital channel as retail footfalls reduce


■ Increase in order value witnessed during FY 21
■ Break-even volumes of QSR chains dependent on pricing and store size for retail business

● Economics of cloud kitchen model attracting major players


■ Savings on rentals , interiors and employees to the tune of 15-25% of revenues
■ But commissions for delivery impacts eats on these savings

● Zomato and Swiggy command major share in food delivery business


■ Diversifying into other business segments to arrest cash burn- groceries, logistics etc
■ Entry of Amazon Food could increase competition
Indian restaurant industry is highly unorganised
