Abstract: Excerpts from the report Preface: Data in this report were obtained from a survey of the market for food away from home, a joint effort of the U.S. Department of Agriculture and the food industry. The industry's efforts were spearheaded by the Institutional Foodservice Manufacturers Association, the National Restaurant Association, and the National Association of Food Equipment Manufacturers. This report provides selected statistics on the number of units of operable food service equipment available in the kinds of businesses represented in the survey. A delineation of the market for food service equipment by kind of business is of concern to producers and processors of foodstuffs, manufacturers of food service equipment and supplies, and distributors who serve the away-from-home market for food.
