Key Findings
- The average disposable income of Spaniards fell during 2008-2009 recession by 2.9%. Since then it has been stabilizing and has not shown considerable growth. This has resulted in controlled spending on non-essentials such as eating out, similar to neighbouring countries such as Italy and France.

- Obesity has been a growing concern in Spain in the past few years, the percentage of obese population is growing in both adults and children according to an OECD study. Hence, the awareness among general public, about eating healthy is growing supported by special initiatives by organisations such as AECOSAN NAOS.

- In the year 2014, Spain recorded a new high in international tourists, numbered 61.7 million until November. Food tourism is becoming increasingly popular as Spanish cuisine is trending in the Foodservice industry globally and awareness on oenogastronomy.

- One of the upcoming trend is the growing popularity of Restaurants that offer a more casual environment, where the staff is less formal, consumers feel more relaxed and comfortable in such spaces.

- Meat is an important part of traditional Spanish cuisine in every meal, however, vegetarianism is on a rise in Spain in the past two years which is motivated by consumers perception of vegetarian food as healthy and ethical.

- The awareness on environmental issues is growing among the general public in Spain, this is also reflected in the Foodservice industry as more Restaurants try to address ecological issues and work towards sustainability.

- The number of salad bars and tapas bars, and places that offer exclusively one variety of food, such as paella, is growing in Spain. Food vans with limited menu are also increasing in number.

- During the recent years, Spanish cuisine has taken over other cuisines globally. The scenario in Spain is also similar with increasing popularity of dishes from specific Spanish regions, especially Catalan and Basque.

- Many Restaurants now have a pre-fixed menu or set menu, which consumers perceive to be less expensive than individual a-la-carte order.
