The Restaurant sector was on the verge of starvation during the recession. As unemployment levels rose, consumers reigned in their budgets and began eating out far less. Many companies within the industry slashed prices to maintain their traffic levels. While this helped remedy some of the decline in customer visits, the sector could see difficulty raising prices back to pre-recession levels now that the economy seems to have eased. Another factor adding to the current restaurant struggles has been the 4.8% inflation of food prices so far this year.
