What you need to know

Under-35s are eating out differently from older generations and they are pushing for vital change within the foodservice market, including demand for zero-waste concepts and vegan dishes.

Whereas under-35s prioritise environmental concerns when it comes to eating out, older consumers are more likely to think about the impact on their health compared to their younger counterparts. When choosing what to eat and where to eat out this group are more likely to be influenced by food safety standards such as hygiene ratings, menu labelling and allergy warnings.
