TIndex (Technomic Index)


TIndex is the Technomic Index on the total U.S. foodservice industry, reported monthly.

TIndex is flat in December

The December TIndex recorded a 116.3 level, which was identical to the November number. When compared to November 2024, this TIndex level is indicative of a real year-over-year industry decline of more than 0.8%. Compared to December 2024, the updated TIndex represents a 4.9% nominal increase year over year, or a 0.8% real uptick. Improved results in the travel and leisure sector along with healthcare drove improved year-over-year results.

About the TIndex:

Each index number corresponds to the same month in 2019. Therefore, as an example, the January 2021 index of 82.2 suggests that the industry is 17.8 percentage points smaller than is was in January 2019.

The index is based on a number of datasets available to Technomic including operator transaction, consumer visit tracking and distributor sales information. All data is weighted and evaluated to align with a representation of the total U.S. foodservice industry.

The TIndex is powered in part by Ignite Company, a robust online platform that allows our clients to understand historical foodservice data trends, prioritize accounts, track competitors and more. Learn more about Ignite Company.
