Fast food is one of the world’s largest growing food types. India’s fast food industry is growing
by 40%. the multinational segment of Indian fast food industry is up to Rs. 20 billion, a figure
which is expected to zoom more than Rs.30 billion by 2010. In last 6 years, foreign investment
in this sector stood at rs.3600 million which is about one-fourth of total investment made in
this sector. Because of the availability of raw material for fast food, global chains are flooding
into the country. The percentage share held by foodservice of total consumer expenditure on
food has increased from a very low base to stand at 2.6% in 2001. Eating at home remains very
much ingrained in Indian culture and changes in eating habits are very slow moving with
barriers to eating out entrenched in certain sectors of Indian society. The growth in nuclear
families, particularly in urban India, exposure to global media and western cuisine and an
increasing number of women joining the workforce have had an impact on eating out trends.
