Spanish term

cadenas de restauración

Spanish to English Bus/Financial Retail Shopping Centres
I'm not clear on what "restauracion" means in this sense (occupying floor space at malls). Here's the full sentence:

"La restauración, en forma de franquicias, continua teniendo un peso importante en las superficies comerciales, ocupando el 35% de la SBA total en 2005. Las cadenas de restauración contemplan la apertura de locales en centros comerciales como una de sus principales vías de expansión."

Thanks!

I'd never heard the term before either, but with some quick research I checked it out, and it appears to be used in Spain in that sense. Quick research like that often works well.

restaurant chains

A restaurant chain is a set of related restaurants, usually with the same name in many different locations either under shared corporate ownership (e.g., In-N-Out Burgers in the U.S.) or franchising agreements. Typically, the restaurants within a chain are built to a standard format and offer a standard menu. Fast food restaurants are the most common, but there are also upscale versions. Restaurants chains are often found near shopping malls and tourist areas.
