Restaurant industry in Norway - statistics & facts
Traditional husmannskost, waffles, and sausages, are some of the foods common to Norway. Takeaway food has also become a prominent dining habit among Norwegians, and it is likely made up of more fast-food options than traditional cuisine. There were approximately 2.14 million users that ordered meal delivery in 2024. This was about 39 percent of the country’s total residents. The number of users is expected to increase to over 2.4 million, more than half of the population, in 2029. Nevertheless, Norway has developed a unique culinary scene constituted by its domestic produce. For instance, fresh seafood, salmon in particular, and game meat.
