China Commercial Dishwasher Market | Emerging Trends, Shares, Investment Opportunities and Competitive Intelligence

The China Commercial Dishwasher Market posted steady growth between 2021 and 2024, supported by the rapid expansion of the HoReCa sector, rising tourism, and favourable government policies. During this period, restaurants, cafes, and hotel chains proliferated across the country. In 2024 alone, China added some new coffee shops, resulting in a net increase of outlets and lifting the total store count year on year.

This made China the world’s largest branded coffee shop market and significantly amplified the demand for reliable commercial dishwashers. At the same time, the tourism sector contributed to China’s economy in 2024, an increase over the previous year, with domestic travel accounting for tourism spending. This surge in tourism directly boosted hotels, restaurants, cafes, and catering services, further fueling demand for commercial dishwashers across the country.

China Commercial Dishwasher Market Overview

The China Commercial Dishwasher Market is projected to grow at a CAGR of 4.2% from 2025 to 2031F. The China commercial dishwasher market is poised to maintain its growth momentum, driven by the expansion of the HoReCa sector alongside rising demand from non-hospitality segments. The restaurant and foodservice industry have staged a strong post-pandemic recovery, reaching high in 2023 with a year-on-year increase, and is expected to climb further by 2025.

This steady growth reinforces the need for reliable, large-scale dishwashing systems as hotels, restaurants, and catering providers focus on operational efficiency, food safety, and customer experience. Beyond hospitality, the non-hospitality sector is also fueling adoption. For instance, China plans to increase its number of airports by 2035, a development that would directly boost dishwasher demand in airline catering kitchens, airport food courts, and premium lounges.
