Three market recovery scenarios

Since the start of the pandemic, the future has been challenging to predict. Numerous lockdowns, tiers and restrictions have scuppered glimpses of positivity surrounding market recovery. As a result, our analysts have produced three difference market scenarios for 2021 based on differing government restrictions and implications for hospitality. Leading impacting factors include the efficiency and uptake of the vaccine rollout as
well as further government support to kick start consumer spending post lockdown.

Quarterly updated consumer insight

How consumers behave pre, post and during lockdown periods is very different, which is why we will be providing quarterly updates of the consumer insight section of the report. So, rather than receiving a snapshot on consumer trends, you will recieve data that reflects the entire year, enabling you to understand how consumers are behaving throughout the year and build a strategy that evolves based on current consumer trends.

These updates will be automatically sent to you every quarter.

A robust read of delivery and click & collect

For most operators, dine in operations have remianed closed longer than they have been opened since March 2020. This has limited operators to three potential footfall streams – takeaway, delivery and click & collect. Understand the behaviour of consumers towards these three footfall streams and understand their impact on market recovery. How can you use each of them to target different consumer demographics?

How can delivery and click & collect work in sync with dine-in once lockdown is lifted?
