Analyst Opinion

Bahrain, a small island nation in the Persian Gulf, has a growing Online Food Delivery market that is gaining popularity among its residents.

Customer preferences:
Bahrain's population is made up of a diverse mix of nationalities, with a significant number of expatriates. The convenience of ordering food online and having it delivered to their doorstep is highly appealing to busy residents who prefer to avoid the hassle of cooking or going out to eat. Moreover, the younger generation's inclination towards technology and online platforms has further fueled the growth of the Online Food Delivery market in Bahrain.

Trends in the market:
The Online Food Delivery market in Bahrain has witnessed a surge in demand over the past few years, with several international players entering the market. The market is highly competitive, with various companies offering discounts, promotions, and loyalty programs to attract customers. The trend of healthy eating has also caught on in Bahrain, with several Online Food Delivery companies offering healthy meal options to cater to this segment of the market. Additionally, the COVID-19 pandemic has further accelerated the growth of the Online Food Delivery market in Bahrain, as people have been forced to stay at home and avoid going out to eat.

Local special circumstances:
Bahrain's small size and high population density make it an ideal market for Online Food Delivery companies. The country's hot and humid climate during the summer months also makes it challenging for people to go out and eat, further driving the demand for Online Food Delivery services. Additionally, Bahrain's tourism industry has been growing, with an increasing number of tourists visiting the country every year. The availability of Online Food Delivery services makes it easier for tourists to order food and enjoy their stay in Bahrain.

Underlying macroeconomic factors:
Bahrain's economy is heavily dependent on the oil and gas sector, which has been experiencing a slowdown in recent years. The government has been actively trying to diversify the economy and promote non-oil sectors, such as tourism and hospitality. The growth of the Online Food Delivery market in Bahrain is a reflection of the country's efforts to promote the hospitality sector and make it more attractive to tourists. Additionally, Bahrain's young and tech-savvy population is driving the demand for Online Food Delivery services, making it a lucrative market for companies to invest in.

Methodology

Data coverage:

The data encompasses B2C enterprises. Figures are based on Gross Merchandise Value (GMV) and represent what consumers pay for these products and services. The user metrics show the number of customers who have made at least one online purchase within the past 12 months.

Modeling approach / Market size:

Market sizes are determined through a bottom-up approach, building on predefined factors for each market. As a basis for evaluating markets, we use annual financial reports of the market-leading companies, third-party studies and reports, as well as survey results from our primary research (e.g., the Statista Global Consumer Survey). In addition, we use relevant key market indicators and data from country-specific associations, such as GDP, GDP per capita, and internet connection speed. This data helps us estimate the market size for each country individually.

Forecasts:

In our forecasts, we apply diverse forecasting techniques. The selection of forecasting techniques is based on the behavior of the relevant market. For example, the S-curve function and exponential trend smoothing. The main drivers are internet users, urban population, usage of key players, and attitudes toward online services.

Additional notes:

The market is updated twice a year in case market dynamics change. The impact of the COVID-19 pandemic and the Russia-Ukraine war are considered at a country-specific level. GCS data is reweighted for representativeness.
