Breakfast is not only an important meal to get you up and moving– turns out it’s also big business. 62 percent of Americans say it’s their favorite meal of the day and many prefer going out to eat breakfast, especially since pandemic re-openings. If you are a savvy entrepreneur thinking of getting into the breakfast business, you have good instincts. Opening a breakfast restaurant can be a profitable venture. Breakfast Restaurants & Diners are a $10 billion dollar industry here in the U.S.
Affordable Ingredients
Here’s the why. Breakfast foods are affordable and easy. And consumers seem to like having someone else do the meal preparation for them. No one wants to start off their busy day and mess up the kitchen. This means that starting a restaurant that focuses primarily on breakfast foods is lucrative.
But just keeping breakfast hours may not bring in the money you’re looking for. Many restaurants extend breakfast hours or serve all day breakfasts thanks to its increasing popularity. Nearly 80 percent of consumers say they enjoy breakfast offerings at their favorite restaurant all day long. Proof of that is that we are seeing terms like brunch, brinner and bresserts. If you have the staffing to open early for prep and stay open past lunch, the breakfast all day option is a good one.
