In this episode, Amy Hom, a veteran of the restaurant brand and technology space, and Paul Barron delve into the challenges faced by fast casual restaurants in the current landscape where technology's role in driving top-line revenue and profits is not as promising as expected. This issue is rooted in the collision between technology and consumer behavior, placing restaurant brands in a complex position.

One of the fundamental dynamics at play is the dominance of millennials in the social commerce market. In 2023, the global social media audience was estimated to comprise approximately 4.9 billion people, marking a substantial increase from previous years. Among these users, the 25-34 age group, which consists mainly of millennials, stands out as the largest demographic.
The episode explores why technology companies may be experiencing a significant downturn, mainly when fast-casual restaurant operators are increasingly focused on cutting expenses and demanding that technology becomes a performing asset rather than just an operational cost.

Adding to this intricate situation is the shifting demographic landscape. Baby Boomers, who are on the cusp of retirement, will range in age from 60 to 78 next year. Simultaneously, Generation Z, aged 12 to 27 next year, is rapidly graduating from school and entering the workforce. Gen Zers are emerging as the leading consumers of fast-casual restaurant food.

This shifting demographic trend forces restaurant CEOs across the industry to reflect on their strategies and adapt to these changing dynamics. The interplay between technology, consumer preferences, and demographics presents challenges and opportunities for the fast-casual restaurant sector.

To gain a deeper understanding of this complex issue, don't miss the full episode, where top analysts and consultants in the restaurant sector provide insightful discussions and analysis.
