There are 7 active businesses in the category “Restaurant” in Fristad - 11.3 per 10,000 residents.
That is fewer than similar-sized areas (median 15.8 per 10,000). With the typical density you would expect about 10.
In the last 3 years 4 opened. Not available yet: closures are only known from 4 October 2026.
In the Swedish industry codes (SNI 2025), cafés, pastry shops, pubs, pizzerias, takeaways and restaurants share one code (56.110); only bars that serve drinks alone (56.300) and mobile food stands (56.120) have their own. Businesses with the restaurant code are counted as a café or bar, or as fast food, when their name says so – café, konditori, pub, bar, pizzeria, kebab, burger, takeaway and the like – and the rest as restaurants. The split is therefore approximate.
Compared with Sweden
Restaurant in Fristad against all of Sweden. Annual-report figures are for 2025 (Borås kommun), from 80 companies. Survival can't be calculated for Sweden yet: Statistics Sweden's Business Register keeps only some of the older closures, so closures are counted from 4 October 2026, when we started collecting.

Deeper numbers
Survival, trouble signs, competition and people for restaurant in Fristad.
Competition
No company runs more than one place of business here, an independent market.
New and established
A young market: many recent start-ups, dynamic, but less proven.
Moving in and out
A move is a place of business closing and the same company opening one in another area within 90 days. Chains are left out. A business that moves and keeps its place-of-business number isn't counted here yet, so the real number of moves is higher.
Distance to the nearest one
Measured from each neighbourhood centre in the municipality.
Jobs – Borås kommun
