Is Pizza Good Food?
The economic downturn has hit many businesses hard. In places like Adelaide and across the southern parts of Australia pizza is becoming a growing comfort to us all, even in our times of need.
When the economy starts to turn, there are always those industries that keep looking up. Across Australia, the industry is strengthening, however in the south the market is moving in the favour of Melbourne Pizza Delivery. The pizza marketplace is definitely one of the booming industries as we speak.
While expensive luxuries have started to flounder and Australians tighten their purse strings, the pizza industry has fared quite well according to an article published in March in an Sydney article. Considered an affordable pleasure, Aussies turn to their number one comfort food in these tough economic times more and more – and take away food has grown to be a last affordable resort. By January of last year, takeaway foods were up in sales by more than 11% over the previous year, and by the halfway mark Domino’s reported an actual increase in pizza sales of almost 3%. In fact, that very same pizza chain was hiring while others were laying off, just to fill the need for pizza stores.
Do take away customers prefer to order pizza from home or make it themselves? By far the majority prefer not to learn how to make pizza dough. Ordering is the preference. So what do you like with your pizza? And what do we like with our pizza? But of course, a good, cold beverage. The brewing industry has grown right alongside the pizza delivery scene, boasting increased profits of over 2% per quarter, and over a $411 million half-year profit for The Foster’s Group, which holds over half of the market share for beer in Australia.
When times are tough, the tough keep going, as these statistics easily show. Would you be prepared to cut back a bit on your going out time? You still have the comfort of good food, great friends, and a lot of spare time up your sleeve, now you don’t need to cook!
