disagree  Tony M: No on both counts! 'foyer' in this sense doesn't mean 'the premises', but rather 'your home'; and this can encompass all forms of restaurants, both eat-in and take-away, as well as things like school / institutional catering etc.

" 'eating-out' industry", " 'eating out' establishments" or "restaurant industry",


Explanation:
This refers to any establishment that provides food service outside the home ( restaurants, hotels, motels, cafeterias, etc.).

Obviously, the whole sentence refers to companies that provide the food and implements (in large quantity) necessary to run such an establishment (for instance, meat suppliers, vegetable suppliers, suppliers of cleaning services, non-renewable items such as paper napkins, etc., etc.)

The above is the closest I could come up with.

"Eating-Out Industry Grand Fair Tokyo April 8-9, 2001"
http://www.mhr-viandes.com/fr/class/drh_frn.htm

"The main issue pursued in my article is how to strengthen competitiveness of the Lithuanian eating-out industry in
an increa singly competitive business environment, which would increase attractiveness of Lithuania to foreign
investors, tourists and guests. "
http://www.leidykla.vu.lt/inetleid/ekono-48.html

"There was also the development of the eating-out industry
and a rapid increase in the consumption of processed and instant foods. The increase in consumers' income and the
penetration of electric cookers and electric refrigerators were major factors in the changes in consumption"

neutral  Tony M: Although your underlying explanation is not wrong, the text requires a term that will also include things like school / institutioanl catering — anywhere, in fact, that you might eat that is not in your own home.
