Total estimated sales of the restaurants, caterers and taverns industry reached $3.6 billion in June, a 4.3% increase over June 2006. (Data are neither seasonally adjusted, nor adjusted for inflation.)
The increase in sales at the national level was due to higher sales at full-service restaurants (+6.3%). Sales for limited-service restaurants increased 2.1%. These two sectors accounted for more than 86% of the industry's sales for the industry in June. The food service contractors sector also posted an increase (+13.1%). That sector accounted for more than 5% of the sales for the industry in June.
Note: Sales estimates at the provincial and national levels were revised for April and May.
