The concept "stomach quota" continues to sound strange to the ears, but it is a term that is increasing unstoppably and that in the coming months will be more present in conversations. The "stomach quota" has to do with the lower demand and fewer occasions for food and drink consumption by people, who always have a limit on their ability to eat and drink.

Against this backdrop, bars, restaurants and even manufacturers are being forced to compete in a kind of race to see who "steals" the next consumption occasion , since it seems that this is the only way to grow. The theory is easy: If we make a client fall in love with us, they will choose us over other players in the market and we will have earned that "stomach quota." According to a statement from EFE , achieving this has become essential taking into account the competition that has been unleashed in all directions as a result of the pandemic.
