Article of the day! 📰 Top Hurdles and Challenges for Restaurants in 2025.

Restaurant leaders representing more than 6,200 locations participated in Restaurant365's latest annual industry survey. They shared 2024's top challenges and opportunities and their 2025 priorities, including increased marketing and sales efforts alongside new benefits and programs to attract and retain staff.

2024 By the Numbers

Participants reported continued food and labor cost increases, with 88% experiencing rising staff expenses, compared to 89% in last year's annual survey, and 86% reporting an increase in food costs. For those with rising labor, 51% reported a 1% to 5% increase, 41% experienced a 6% to 14% increase, and 8% saw labor costs rise more than 15%. The most significant impact was on restaurants' ability to achieve their maximum potential, with 59% of respondents saying labor challenges led to operating below full capacity.

For food, 53% reported a 1% to 5% jump, 37% saw a 6% to 14% increase, and 10% saw a more than 15% rise. The primary response was menu price increases, with nearly 61% of respondents adjusting prices to cope with the new reality.

Looking to 2025

Restaurant leaders expect waves in the year ahead, with 32% pinning recruitment and retention as their top challenge, 27% most concerned about rising food costs, and 21% flagging sales volume as the main hurdle.

Despite potential challenges, the industry is both optimistic, as total restaurant sales crested $1 trillion for the first time on record, and ready to pivot to continue growing.
