Consumer Signals Shaping the Future of QSR

The fast food industry is entering a new era, one shaped less by assumptions and more by real-time consumer behavior. As economic pressure, guest expectations, and evolving food preferences collide, QSR brands face one critical question:

What do consumers actually want and how are their behaviors changing right now? 

Join Numerator’s Gretchen Hill, Restaurant Industry Principal and John Rounds, Solution Consultant, on Tuesday, February 17, 2026 at 11 AM ET for an in-depth webinar unpacking the consumer signals shaping the future of quick-service restaurants, grounded in verified restaurant purchase data and guest feedback, including:

  • The current state of the QSR consumer, including how their spend, frequency, and brand loyalty are evolving
  • Menu and flavor trends gaining traction, from craveable comfort to innovation that drives trial 
  • How brand buzz and perception are influencing choice in a crowded fast food landscape 
  • Where consumers are trading up, trading down, or holding steady amid economic pressure 

You’ll walk away with a clearer understanding of who’s still spending, where demand is shifting, and how QSR brands can respond with confidence.
