Consumer tastes are changing – literally. Experts are forecasting a host of changes to the food service industry, including some that businesses are already seeing. From the menu your business serves, to the setting it’s served in, to the equipment it’s prepared on – food service businesses comprise an industry that’s as tumultuous as it is competitive. And as new innovations continue to emerge, such as the rise of online ordering, the challenges are only going to get tougher.
At Evolution, we understand how hard it is for food service businesses to remain competitive – especially in an era where Yelp reviews, Instagram likes, and Facebook shares can make or break an emerging business. We deliver actionable market research data your business can use to build stronger strategies.
Let’s talk about how market research can boost your food service business. To speak with one of our expert analysts, contact Evolution online, or call today at (866) 486-0873.

At Evolution Consulting, we’re committed to senior level consultants being engaged from start to finish. Unlike some of our competitors, who rely on junior team members or moderator pools, we ensure hands-on involvement at the senior management level -in every single engagement. It’s how we get the opportunity to work with a broad range of household name brands including Procter & Gamble (Folgers, Puffs, Hawaiian Punch, Sunny Delight), Pillsbury (Toaster Strudel/Scrambles, Totino’s Pizza Rolls, Progresso Soups), and Aurora Foods (Duncan Hines Bake Mixes).
A massive shift toward healthier, natural products is well underway. Changing attitudes are shining a spotlight on whole, organic, or zero-waste foods, while canned and shelf-stable products are experiencing sales slumps, which have persisted over the past several years.
Product cycles are speeding up – intensifying the pressure on businesses. Issues like globalization, product/menu customization, and regulatory risk all contribute their own roadblocks to profitability. But Evolution provides the full suite of services to help your business thrive.
The competition is fierce. The regulations are strict. The overhead is high. It’s a hard place to be, and an even harder place to flourish. But don’t worry: with data to guide you and experts to lead you, your toughest challenges can transform into your greatest opportunities.
In addition to our experience and commitment, our firm places a unique emphasis on the actionability of our results. The data is merely a starting point to build a stronger business strategy. The insights are what get you the results.
