Speaking at the event Chef Shankar Krishnamurthy, Chapter Head, NRAI Hyderabad highlighted “The organized Market Share of Restaurants in Hyderabad is estimated to be INR 6,037 Cr., with standalone Restaurants market share being INR 4,657 crores and Chain Restaurants being INR 1,380 crores. Sadly, today the unorganized sector has become the ‘elephant in the room’, that is not being addressed by anyone, the government, or the industry bodies. It is our endeavor to fuel the increasing innovation by the organized formats, to enable a rapid shift towards the organized segment.
