The market trajectory is obvious, concedes Steven Timmermans, co-owner of the family business Alfa Fish, on the sidelines of the Gondola Foodservice Congress where he was a speaker. "But we see a real opportunity in it."

The Belgian healthy dining chain is reaching a new milestone in its international expansion. Its ultra-fresh ready meals are now appearing on the shelves of Billa supermarkets in Austria. For Foodmaker, this marks the fifth export market reached through its international distribution network.

The Belgian restaurant chain has launched a rare campaign: upon presentation of a fuel receipt, customers will now receive a discount on their meal. "A small gesture, but a clear signal," stated Sabine Vanderveken, the CEO of Lunch Garden, during the Gondola Foodservice Congress, which had the specific theme: "Stop guessing. Think like the Guest."
