With nearly £2 billion (US$3.1 billion) in annual sales, the high-growth, high-value UK pizza sector offers serious opportunity for operators, as well as real insight into the global pizza markets possible evolution. Combining a strong chained sector with a high proportion of full-service restaurant operator, pizza in the UK has evolved towards a two-tiered market, with increasingly high-end chained and independent FSRs battling it out with more value priced casual dining and 100% home delivery/takeaway outlets. With the largest global pizza chains facing strong competition on the low end from low-priced independents and fast food operators while also struggling to break out of the casual dining niche in many developed markets, the UK example offers a potential way forward for operators looking to grow share in more developed markets.
