Self-Service Cafeterias in the United Kingdom

Self-service cafeterias in the UK continued to record a positive performance across all indicators (value sales, transactions, and outlets) in 2024, despite some closures from chains such as Marks & Spencer. However, most chained self-service cafeterias continued to expand their networks, and benefit from increased transactions.
