| The Lone Star State currently holds the title as the second largest foodservice market in the nation, ranking only behind California. Industry sales in the state are predicted to reach $26.4 billion this year, an increase of 7 percent over 2000 levels. While Texas is the second largest foodservice market, the Texas Restaurant Association is the largest state restaurant association in the United States with more member locations.
Texas also leads the West South Central region, which includes Arkansas, Louisiana and Oklahoma, and presently represents 68 percent of the region's total eating place sales.
Nationally, projections indicate that the U.S. restaurant industry will gross $557 billion by 2010 and will continue to experience phenomenal growth. The industry will also be looking to hire more than 100,000 managers annually. By the year 2006, the restaurant and hospitality industry is expected to employ 12 million people. Texas alone will need nearly 200,000 new employees to meet its growing demand.
The phenomenal growth of the industry, coupled with rising business costs and increasing government regulation, make membership in TRA a vital part of doing business.
