Accommodation and food services; turnover index, 2015=100

This table presents information on the development in turnover and volume in the sector Accommodation and food serving (ISIC 2008 codes 55 and 56). The figures are expressed as a percentage change compared to a previous period and by means of an index. In this table the base year is updated to 2015, in previous publications the base year was 2010. Developments in turnover and volume are published in two formats. Firstly, as a year-on-year mutation which expresses growth relative to the same period in the preceding year. The second format pertains to a period-on-period mutation, for example quarter-on-quarter. Period-on-period mutations are derived by applying seasonal adjustment.

Data available from: 1st quarter 2005.

Status of the figures: Figures of 2023 are provisional.

Changes as of August 31, 2023: Figures of the 2nd quarter 2023 have been added. Due to the erroneous import of revised 2022 figures, the most up-to-date data were not used during the publication of 2023Q1 and some 2022 figures were changed. The changes are limited for most industries (ranging from a tenth to a maximum of 1 percentage point). Exceptions are:

• Sector 55 Accommodation: 2022Q2, 3 and 4, where the differences were 2.43 and 1.96 and 2.27 percentage points, respectively.

Due to the government measures related to the corona virus, some services were not or only to a limited extent available in the second and fourth quarter of 2020 and in the first quarter of 2021. As a result, for some of these services, there were no transactions for which prices could be measured. The lack of sufficient transactions is the reason why volume figures are not published for some branches.

As a rule quarterly statistics are published on the last working day of the second month after the quarter. Once definite figures have been published, Statistics Netherlands will only apply adjustments if significant corrections are necessary.
