The Australian Hospitality Index is made up of the Pricing Index and Performance Index.

About the Performance Index Track the movement of wholesale food & beverage trade
The Hospitality Performance Index tracks how sales activity is moving across the Ordermentum network and is built from real orders flowing through 50,000+ venues every day.
We use July 2025 as the baseline (= 100). So a current reading of 108 means sales are 8% higher than they were at the start of 2025. The higher the number, the busier the network.
Unlike the Pricing Index, the Performance Index tracks how wholesale trade is moving across the network .The index is GMV-weighted across product categories and adjusted for seasonality and working days.

INSIGHTS FROM THE DATA How we make our calculations
The numbers come straight from real orders happening across Ordermentum
01 · THE DATA
Real transactions, not surveys
We have one of Australia's largest hospitality trade datasets, and we report straight from real orders between hospitality venues and their wholesale suppliers on Ordermentum — not surveys, not estimates.
02 · THE METHOD
A stable, weighted cohort
Only suppliers that meet clear, consistent conditions are included in the dataset. Each is weighted based on activity, one-off spikes are filtered out, and every reading sits against a fixed baseline. This means the data is clean and easy to compare.
03 · PRIVACY BY DESIGN
Industry trends, never individuals
The index only ever shows how industries and the network are moving. Every figure is aggregated and anonymised. No customer can be identified, and no individual order, price or trading relationship is ever shown.
04 · DATA FOR GOOD
Built to give value back
Your data stays yours. We use it only in aggregate to give the whole industry a clearer read on the market - and helps you benchmark your own performance.
