The purpose of this study is to make an effort to analyse the acceptance of convenience food among managers and chefs working in Indian branded quick service restaurants (QSR) and to rank the perceptions that affect these individuals to employ convenience food in day-to-day operations. The present study was conducted in various Indian branded QSR outlets in North India.
