Economic indicators cannot be ignored. In places like Melbourne 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 true strength is with Melbourne Pizza Delivery. The pizza delivery industry is definitely one of the booming industries as we speak.
While expensive luxuries have started to flounder and Australians cut back overall, 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 favorite 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 a big pizza chain reported an actual increase in pizza sales of almost 3%. In fact, Domino’s was hiring while others were sacking, just to fill the need for pizza delivery people.
Do take away customers prefer to order pizza from home or make it at home? Most people prefer not to learn how to make pizza dough. Dialing a take away 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 beer. The brewing industry has grown right alongside the pizza delivery scene, claiming increased profits of over 2% per quarter, and over a $411 million half-year profit for The Foster’s Group, which holds an estimated 52% of the market share for beer in Australia.
The economic indicators have definitely tightened things up for people. 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 relaxing beer at home!
