South Africa Fast Food Market Size, Trends, Opportunities, Innovations & Forecast till 2026
According to a new report published by KD
Market Insights titled, “South
Africa Fast Food Market by
Product Type, Age Group and Distribution Channel: Opportunity Analysis and
Industry Forecast, 2019–2026," the South Africa fast food market size was
valued at $2.7 billion in 2018, and is projected to reach $4.9 billion by 2026,
growing at a CAGR of 7.9% from 2019 to 2026.
Initially, the South Africa fast food industry
was dominated by an oligopolistic market structure. However, in the past two
decades, the industry has evolved rapidly comprising independent and chain
restaurants. This evolution in the fast food industry is attributed to increase
in consumption rate and preference for fast food products among the South
African customers. Approximately 25 million customers have been visiting fast
food restaurants each year. Processed chicken, burgers, processed fish, pizza,
sandwiches, and others are some of the main types of fast food items that are
gaining popularity in the South African market. Among these product types, the
burger and pizza categories have witnessed faster growth in terms of value
sales due to faster store roll-out and arrival of international brands.
Estimating South Africa to be one of the
lucrative markets in the fast food sector, some of the key international
players have been investing heavily in the country. For instance, Grand Parade
Investments brought Burger King to South Africa and had plans to roll out
Dunkin’ Donuts and Baskin-Robbins stores. Furthermore, Taste Holdings converted
its St Elmo’s and Scooters outlets to Domino’s and opened two Starbucks stores
in 2016.
Some of the key fast food operators, both domestic and international, consider South Africa as the key market in generating sales due to rise in demand for convenience food products. These operators have been strategizing on promoting their product offerings, prices as well as their services to increase their customer base. Furthermore, introduction of customer loyalty programs, weekly specials, and availing regional cuisines attract the customer toward these food products. Thus, strategical promotional activities by fast food operators are one of the key factors that drives the growth of the fast food products in the country.
New entrants are expected to find it difficult
in the initial stage to establish their market in South Africa due to some of
strategical moves initiated by their potential competitors. For instance,
Burger King’s entry into the South Africa market experienced substantial
competition from McDonalds. McDonalds reduced the prices, increased meal
portions, and opened outlets in areas where the new entrant has its food
joints. Therefore, rise in market competition is expected to hamper the market
growth.
The South Africa fast food market is segmented

product type, the market is divided into processed chicken, burger, processed
fish, pizza, sandwich, and others. By age group, it is categorized into below
