NAICS 722 – Food services and drinking places
Food services and drinking places continued to add jobs in June
(+33,000). Since reaching an employment trough in February 2010,
this industry has added 1.4 million jobs, accounting for 80 percent of
the job gains seen in leisure and hospitality during the same period.
The jobs added in food services and drinking places occurred during
a period of more erratic growth in inflation-adjusted retail sales at
food services and drinking places (source: U.S. Census Bureau).
