From the streets to your seats
Street food is one of the fastest growing channels and has begun to change the way consumers like to eat over the last couple of years. It’s no longer limited to portable vendors, more and more restaurants are starting to mimic the flavours and style of street food. We’re also seeing products being launched into retail that lend themselves to the street food trend such as spices, drinks and ready meals. With the street food market estimated to reach £1.2bn last year, up 9.1% from 2017* we believe the momentum of street food is set to continue and is a trend worth noting for 2019. Our New4You Inspired by Street Eats guide is about helping you tap into this ever growing trend and understand how you can bring it from the streets to your business’ seats.
