A food and quick service restaurant (QSR) refers to a casual dining setup, in which pre-prepared fast food is assembled and served to the customers. These outlets usually offer a limited menu and the food is prepared in advance in bulk quantities, which is further heated and packaged for take away or dine-in. They provide a wide variety of economical foods and beverages, such as burgers, sandwiches, pizzas, pastas, soft and alcoholic drinks, desserts, cakes, pastries, chicken, seafood, etc., and which are inspired by the local ingredients and cuisine. Apart from this, these restaurants are usually a part of an existing restaurant chain or franchise operation that provides standardized ingredients and/or partially prepared foods to the restaurants through controlled supply channels.

Significant growth in the food and beverage industry, along with the widespread adoption of franchise business models by popular restaurant chains, is one of the key factors creating a positive outlook for the market. Furthermore, the increasing working population and improving consumer lifestyles across the globe have enhanced the consumption of fast food products. Also, due to the hectic schedules, there is widespread adoption of on-the-go food products that can be readily purchased and consumed while traveling. This, consequently, is creating a positive outlook for the market. Additionally, the emerging café culture, coupled with the availability of healthier fast food alternatives, is acting as another growth-inducing factor. QSRs are developing innovative and exotic recipes using natural, organic and plant-based ingredients, instead of artificial and processed substitutes, and are gaining immense traction among health-conscious consumers. Other factors, including modernization and digitization of the restaurants, coupled with the utilization of touchscreen kiosks, kitchen-display screens and digital sales terminal, are anticipated to drive the market further.
