Are you wondering which flavors, technologies, and concepts will win the hearts of Guests in the coming years? At Bon Vivant Advisory (BVA), we know that in the rapidly changing gastronomy industry, the key to long-term success is continuous monitoring and adapting to trends.

Our Trend Spotting service is your personal radar in the gastronomy market. We help you not only spot upcoming changes but, most importantly, leverage them for development and innovation in your restaurant.

What does our Trend Spotting service involve?
As part of Trend Spotting, we offer comprehensive monitoring and analysis of key gastronomy trends, including:

• Identification of global and local trends: We continuously track changes in the global gastronomy market — from innovative culinary concepts and cooking techniques, through consumer dietary preferences (e.g., plant-based diets, healthy food, local products), to technological innovations (e.g., AI in gastronomy, new ordering systems). At the same time, we analyze how these global trends adapt to the specifics and needs of the Polish market.
• Analysis and forecasting: We don’t just highlight what is "trending," but primarily analyze the potential of individual trends. We forecast which will persist longer and which are just fleeting fashions. This enables you to make informed investment decisions.
• Adaptation and recommendations: We help you understand how specific trends can be adapted and implemented in your restaurant. We prepare personalized recommendations regarding changes in menu, decor, marketing strategy, or business model so your venue becomes synonymous with innovation.
• Matching Guest needs and market capabilities: We ensure that our proposed solutions align not only with the latest trends but also respond to the real needs of your Guests and are feasible to implement within your market’s realities.
