The future of the fast food industry will not only be characterized by dynamism as it continues to metaphorically evolve, but will also be eminently auspicious for franchisees even though it will present fewer job opportunities for human laborers. It stands to preponderantly reason that demand for fast food will rise to an unprecedented height in the coming years. In other words, "the global fast food market is slated to cross more than $690,000,000,000 in 2022 and is likely to develop at a compound annual growth rate of slightly more than 4.20% from 2017 to 2022" ("Global Industry Trends," 2019). The fast food market is a major segment of the behemoth global restaurant industry. The global restaurant industry is slated to become a "$1,200,000,000,000 industry by 2030" (Maze, 2019). "Fast food is a type of mass-produced food with high saturated fat, sugar, salt and calories. Typically, the term refers to food available in a restaurant or store with preheated or precooked ingredients, and served to the customer in a packaged form for take-out or to be consumed on the premises. Fast food options include fries, burgers, pizzas, sandwiches" ("Global Industry Trends," 2019), and other types of unhealthy food products. Fast foods can be prepared in an expeditious manner and are typically lower priced than menu options from traditional restaurants. "Fast foods are" ("Global Industry Trends," 2019) deemed to be quick alternatives to home-cooked meals" ("Global Industry Trends," 2019) and can often be delivered directly to customers through third party delivery services. Even though fast foods are insalubrious, unhealthy, inflammatory, non-alkaline food choices, people are still voraciously eager to devour fast foods. Customers are reticent about preparing their own foods and are often disinclined to pursue a healthy dietary regimen. Since billions of people do not care an iota about how their dietary decisions can adversely impact their health, the future of the fast food industry will be robust and lucrative for fast food chains. In the coming years, more fast food restaurants will install drive-through windows. "Drive-thru facilities at fast food joints is expected to drive the market growth further. The sharp rise in adoption of western fast food among the emerging economies is anticipated to reinforce the growth of the fast food market in upcoming years. Rising hectic lifestyle with dual income is anticipated to elicit the demand for fast food" ("Global Industry Trends," 2019) in the coming years ("Global Industry Trends," 2019). "Moreover, growing fondness towards inexpensive food with no waiting time may further prompt the fast food market growth over the coming years" ("Global Industry Trends," 2019). Fast food chains realize that their customer base is keen on not only having convenient food options, but also having convenient checkout options. More fast food restaurants will install drive-thru windows in order to be able to appeal to a broader customer base. Customers are eager to buy fast food products from their cars without undergoing the hassle of having to go inside a restaurant to procure their food products. When fast food restaurants have drive through windows, customers are also able to indulge in the luxury of waiting in their vehicles while their food is being prepared. Waiting inside a line at a noisy restaurant can be far more stressful than waiting inside your vehicle for your fast food restaurant order to be fulfilled.
