Cafe and canteen receipts decline as rest of F&B rebound

Fast food, restaurants and food caterers surge.

SingStat reports that for the month of June 2013 fast food outlets, restaurants and food caterers recorded increases in receipts of between 1.4% and 4.5% compared to the previous month, after seasonal adjustment.

On the other hand, turnover of other eating places (such as cafes and canteens) decreased marginally by 0.4% in June 2013 over May 2013.

On a year-on-year basis though cafes and canteens seemed to fare better. Compared to June 2012, all categories recorded increases in receipts in June 2013.

Turnover of fast food outlets, restaurants, food caterers and other eating places grew between 2.2% and 6.1% during this period, with the highest growth posted by fast food outlets and the lowest by other eating places like cafes and canteens.

Reaching the people who run Asia's businesses is harder than it used to be.

Inboxes are crowded. Attention is short. The executives you most want to reach — the founders, CFOs, and operators who actually move budgets — are the hardest to find through the usual channels. If you're building a company, a category, or a reputation, you already know this.

We've spent twenty years building the room they read. Singapore Business Review is where senior decision makers in Singapore and across Southeast Asia come for business coverage they can't get elsewhere — in print, online, and in person at the summits and roundtables we host across seven markets.

If you have something these readers should know about — a point of view worth publishing, a product worth their attention, an event worth their time — we'd like to hear what you're trying to do.
