In 2023, the internal tourism expenditure on food and beverage serving services in Sweden stood at 25.69 billion Swedish Kronas. The forecasted figures indicate a gradual decline in expenditure over the coming years. In 2024, the value is expected to remain steady at 25.44 billion, but a slight drop to 25.19 billion is projected for 2025, followed by continued decreases to 24.94 billion in 2026, 24.69 billion in 2027, and 24.44 billion in 2028. Year-on-year variations show a consistent decline, with the compound annual growth rate (CAGR) indicating an average decrease per year over the last five years.
Future trends to watch for include potential shifts in consumer behavior due to economic changes, the impact of digital and contactless technologies in food and beverage services, and the influence of sustainability and local sourcing on tourism expenditure patterns. Monitoring these factors will be crucial for forecasting further variations in this sector.
