Our Annual
Hospitality Trends Report
Now in its 16th edition, our annual hospitality trends report produced by af&co. and Carbonate has become an anticipated industry resource. The report is intended to serve as a guide to help the hospitality industry prepare for the coming year.
We’re always striving to better understand all the ways that people interact with hospitality brands. We want to know what gets them hooked and what keeps them coming back for more.
Our Charitable Partner
We’re excited to share that in conjunction with this year’s report, af&co. and Carbonate will be raising funds for two incredible non-profit organizations:
La Soupe (Cincinnati, OH) is a well established program working with chefs and volunteers to rescue perishable food from farms, grocers, restaurants, caterers and wholesalers to prepare nourishing meals to feed the hungry.
Foodwise (San Francisco, CA) (formerly CUESA) is a mission-driven 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization dedicated to growing thriving communities through the power and joy of local food. Founded in 1994, Foodwise operates the world-renowned Ferry Plaza Farmers Market and Mission Community Market in San Francisco. Through farmers markets, food access, and education, Foodwise offers programs to connect eaters of all ages with fresh food and local farms, and inspire communities to take part in creating a fair, regenerative, and delicious food future for all.
af&co. and Carbonate have committed to matching donations made from
now until June 30, 2024.
