Based on product type, the cooking equipment segment is expanding at a growth rate of 5.4% during the period 2021-2027.

The cooking equipment segment is anticipated to grow at the highest CAGR during the forecast period. This growth can be attributed to the rise in popularity of creative cooking and baking methods that has resulted in a variety of dine-out options for consumers. Thus, to offer the best services to customers, restaurants invest in different types of cooking equipment, which accelerated the demand for food service equipment products. Storage & handling equipment is the second-highest revenue contributor in the food service equipment market as there is always demand for temperature-controlled storage equipment for perishable and processed food items.

Based on the end-user, the full-service restaurants & hotels accounted for a 40% share in the overall food service equipment market size, followed by the quick service restaurants & pubs and catering.

The full service restaurants & hotels expected to hold the largest revenue share throughout the period. The growth in this segment is attributed to the advent of digital dining trends, which has forced food service operators to deploy modern equipment to speed up the preparation process and reduce delivery uptime. The subsequent shift in the dine-out culture for formal events as well as informal gatherings during travel & tourism activities has increased the footfall in full-service restaurants over the past few years.

Further, the quick service restaurants (QSRs) segment is expected to grow at a substantial growth rate during the forecast period. The growth in this segment is attributed to the increase in working population, rising disposable incomes, and globalization of the prominent restaurant chains by establishing franchisee joints. Moreover, rising demand for ready-to-cook food to save the time of consumers will create ample demand for quick-service restaurants.

Based on regions, the market for food service equipment in Asia-Pacific accounted for the largest revenue share in 2020, followed by North America and Europe.

Asia-Pacific accounted for the highest revenue share of near to 35.0% in 2020 and is predicted to maintain its dominance within the market throughout the forecast period. Rapidly westernizing dining customs and expansion of the tourism sector, particularly in Singapore, Malaysia, Indonesia, and Australia, are accelerating the demand for food service equipment within the region. Furthermore, restaurants are including multiple cuisines in their menus due to an increasing number of consumers experimenting with new foods and developing a taste for various cuisines. Additionally, the increasing consumption of processed foods is projected to make an attractive demand for these appliances within the region.

North America is anticipated the grow at the second-highest CAGR in the food service equipment market during the forecast period owing to the presence of well-established brands such as McDonald's, Burger King Corporation, KFC Corporation, and Starbucks Coffee Company. Moreover, government dynamism to influence the tourism sector and immigration in the country are expected to elevate the restaurant industry in the near future, which, in turn, to create the lucrative opportunity for the deployment of these equipment within the region. .
