Overview
The food and beverage industry represents $1.4+ trillion in annual revenue. Over the last several years in particular, swift migration to online sales has made the food and beverage industry the largest online consumer segment, with sales of food and beverage, groceries and take-out, expanding to hundreds of billions of dollars annually.
Notably, big brands and artisan food producers are continuing to launch virtual stores at lightning speed. In addition, supermarkets and restaurants remain focused on introducing new delivery models to keep pace with supply channel demands.
