Turkey: Food Service - Hotel Restaurant Institutional

  |   Attaché Report (GAIN)

The year 2015 has been a difficult one for Turkey's hotel, restaurant and institutions (HRI) sector due to political and economic instability. This is expected to result in a slowing down of the average growth rate of the sector in 2015. The tourism sector is also expected to be affected. On the other hand, fast food consumption has increased as a result of the unstable economic and political environment. Families with children started to switch from full-service restaurants to fast food outlets, where they can control their spending more easily. There are opportunities for American exporters in the food service sector in Turkey.
