About the pricing index Track the movement of wholesale prices
The Hospitality Pricing Index tracks how wholesale prices are moving across Australian hospitality, with data extracted from real orders happening on Ordermentum every day.
We use July 2025 as the baseline (= 100). That means a current reading of 115 indicates that prices are 15% higher than they were at the start of 2025.
We use real ordering data from the Ordermentum platform, refreshed every month. The index is GMV-weighted across product categories and adjusted for seasonality and working days.
Want To Stay Competitive?
The Hospitality Index gives you a strong indicator of how the industry is performing - and how each category is performing versus industry averages. Suppliers on Ordermentum find that their pricing and the performance of their products sits close to or is often better than the benchmark.

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.
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.
