Costa Rica: Food Service - Hotel Restaurant Institutional

  |   Attaché Report (GAIN)   |   CS2023-0014

Representing more than 8 percent of Costa Rica's national economy, tourism is a significant driver of food service demand and wields considerable influence over consumer-oriented product import suppliers to Costa Rica. The United States is the dominant supplier of international tourists (55 percent year-to-August) and of imported consumer-oriented food and beverage products to Costa Rica (46 percent in 2022). As Costa Rica's economy continues to grow and as tourism operators make substantial new investments in Costa Rica's Pacific Northwest, U.S. consumer-oriented products will remain in high demand.
