January 2024 sales for DMV restaurants are in!
On a seven-day moving average, Fast Casual ended January at +2% higher than in January 2023, and Full Service ended net even with last year's numbers.
Both sectors performed similarly throughout the month, ending the month on the upswing. While the lines on the graph don't look particularly encouraging at first glance, it's important to look at the beginning of the chart to January 2023's sales which had massive, massive growth. So while 0% and 2% growth is still something to celebrate on its own, it's also 17% growth for Fast Casual and 38% for Full Service above January 2022's numbers.
Delivery sales increased last month for both the DMV and nationwide to 13%.
Wishing you all a busy Valentine's Day, especially for our Full Service friends, and we'll see you in March!
