Weak Demand Stalls Recovery of Indonesia’s Hotel and Restaurant Industry

“Restaurants in Indonesia have made slight improvements not solely from the sales of food and beverages, but due to office workers and from increased social mobility. Work-from-home lifestyles present its own set of problems.”

Maulana explained that prior to enforcing work-from-home protocols, office workers would buy breakfast, snack, or a cup of coffee at a restaurant, but that has since slowed down.

As a result, Maulana shared that numerous restaurant outlets in Indonesia had to shut down due to a shortage of customers during the coronavirus pandemic.
