Analysis of Top 50 Fast-Food Chains in the USA

Overview

This project presents a comprehensive analysis of the top 50 fast-food chains in the United States. Utilizing a dataset that includes various metrics such as total units, sales figures, and average sales per unit, I developed a Power BI dashboard to visualize the data and extract valuable insights into the fast-food industry. The visualizations provide an in-depth look at the performance of different fast-food chains, their distribution of stores, and their financial performance.

Files Included

  • Top 50 Fast-Food Chains in USA.csv: The dataset used for the analysis. This CSV file contains detailed information about the top 50 fast-food chains, including the number of units, sales in millions, and other relevant data.

  • Fast-Foods Stores Analysis-1.pbix: The Power BI file that contains the dashboard created for this analysis. It includes various visualizations such as bar charts, pie charts, and tables to present the data effectively.

  • Fast-Foods Stores Analysis-1.png: A screenshot of the Power BI dashboard, providing a quick view of the insights drawn from the data.

Visualizations

The Power BI dashboard includes the following visualizations:

  1. Total Units by Fast-Food Chains: A bar chart displaying the total number of units for each fast-food chain. Subway leads with the highest number of units, followed by Starbucks and McDonald's.

  2. Sales (Million USD): A bar chart showing the sales in millions of U.S. dollars. McDonald's dominates with $46 billion in sales, followed by Starbucks with $24 billion.

  3. Average Sales per Unit (Thousands USD): A bar chart illustrating the average sales per unit. Chick-fil-A stands out with the highest average sales per unit.

  4. Distribution of Stores: A pie chart that breaks down the distribution of franchised stores versus company-owned stores.

  5. Company Stores: A bar chart listing the number of company-owned stores for various fast-food chains, with Starbucks having the largest number.

  6. Units Change (2020): A table that displays the change in the number of units for each fast-food chain from 2020 to 2021, showing growth trends across the industry.

Insights

  • Subway and Starbucks are the leaders in terms of the number of units, with Subway having more than 21,000 units.

  • McDonald's generates the highest revenue, significantly outpacing other chains with $46 billion in sales.

  • Chick-fil-A has the highest average sales per unit, indicating a strong performance at each location.

  • The distribution of stores shows that franchised stores make up the majority of fast-food outlets, representing 84.1% of the total.

How to Use

  1. Explore the Dataset: Start by examining the provided CSV file to understand the raw data.

  2. Review the Power BI Dashboard: Open the .pbix file in Power BI Desktop to explore the visualizations and gain deeper insights.

  3. Refer to the Screenshot: Use the PNG file as a quick reference to the dashboard's layout and the type of insights you can expect.

Conclusion

This project provides a clear understanding of the fast-food industry's landscape in the United States. The Power BI dashboard is an effective tool for visualizing data and identifying trends across the top 50 fast-food chains, making it easier for stakeholders to make data-driven decisions.
