F&B Market Trends

Hospitality businesses are preparing for a busy festive season amid shifting costs and evolving customer expectations. Entegra’s latest Market Trends Report gives you a clear view of what’s changing across food, beverage, and non-food categories, and where to focus to protect your margins through winter.

 

 

Inside this season’s Market Trends report, you’ll discover:

 

  • Food inflation slows, but staples like red meat, chocolate, and coffee remain under upward pressure.

  • Weather extremes continue to affect European crops, from potatoes and lettuce to root vegetables.

  • Protein markets split — beef and lamb prices stay high while pork remains the most stable choice.

  • Seafood supply tightens, with salmon, seabass, and monkfish all facing rising costs.

  • Sustainability vs. price — operators balance greener choices with cost control across non-food categories.

     

    Plus plenty more — from volatile sugar markets, to growing pressure on coffee supply chains, this report is packed with insights to help you optimise menus, manage margins, and stay ahead of the competition.
