The COVID-19 outbreak has had an unprecedented impact on industry and the economy. Consumer behaviours have shifted remarkably due to the corona virus in the past ten months. This has also affected sectors which require physical interaction with the consumer, such as foodservice, tourism and hotels. The effective anti-epidemic measures have laid a foundation for economic recovery in the coming months. Sectors like holidays and foodservice, which require consumers to leave the home and potentially gather in small or large groups, saw reduced spending.
The consumer spending within their reduced means and with enhanced cautious attitude resulted in pushing brands to consider new strategies to cope with the ‘new normal’. This will be mainly reflected in helping people find a balance in life and enjoy the quality and pleasure of life through small indulgence and embracing simple moments.
The six month of pandemic outbreak has affected hospitality industry in an unprecedented manner. It has brought the industry to its knees, which now needs a serious support from all possible stake holders involved in the business. Many properties have been permanently shut down and thousands of jobs are lost. The industry was desperately waiting for government to announce re-opening of the hospitality and foodservice segment, which suffered the most. The hotel industry is seeing some movement now with customers coming back, offering some ray of hope to those struggling to hold on. But its impact is far from over, and it is pivotal that the industry addresses key pain points and builds a system that ensure better future for the industry.
