Industry Description

Companies that own, operate, and/or franchise limited menu eateries, including gourmet coffee houses and bagel shops.

Summary

Specialty eateries form a conglomerate body of restaurants and shops that control our minds. Well, almost. Yet how often do we catch ourselves daydreaming about an iced cappuccino, a cold smoothie, or a scoop of frozen yogurt? This impulsive, indulgent manner of thinking about (and subsequently purchasing) specialty foods is the main reason this sector is so frequently used as a measure of consumer confidence.
