Takeaway Chicken Shops in Australia - Industry Market Research Report

Taking flight: Chicken shop revenue is growing as consumers flock to food delivery platforms

The Takeaway Chicken Shops industry has expanded, with many franchise chains enjoying mounting sales during the pandemic. During the initial stages of the pandemic in 2019-20, quarantine measures plunged foot traffic for takeaway chicken shops, which caused a dip in sales. But periods of government-imposed lockdowns boosted the uptake of food delivery platforms, which has driven sales, particularly for larger chains like KFC. The expansion of larger players' store networks has also supported industry growth. But growth in recent years has been curtailed by the rising demand for eating out at cafes and restaurants instead of takeaway joints as COVID-19 restrictions have eased. Overall, industry revenue has risen at an annualised 1.0% over the past five years and is expected to total $4.6 billion in 2022-23, when revenue jumps by an estimated 2.5%.

Industry players primarily sell chicken and chicken-based foods for on-premises consumption and takeaway.
