Finally, in relation to consumption channels, the physical restaurant continues to be the most common for all age groups, with a frequency of 3.76 out of 5. And although the apps have gained strength, they still have not managed to unseat the telephone: both obtained 3.36 points.

“In this ranking the power of loyalty is observed, since for all the brands analyzed in the sector, the valuation is higher among customers than non-customers and in the same way it happens with the contact channels: the greater the use of a channel , it is better valued. This index allows for a clear and quick diagnosis of the main strengths and weaknesses of each brand in the sector, so that they put their clients at the center of their strategies” assured Lola Chicón , CEO and founder of Smartme Analytics.
