The comparative assessment of the results of restaurant enterprises’ activities of towns and districts of Zakarpattia Oblast has been done with the use of the Saati method for the last quarter of 2017 and 2018.

Випуск 1(13) 183 over a certain period. The hierarchy analysis method has been chosen for evaluation due to its multipurposeness, as it can be used not only to analyze and compare the state of the industry or an individual enterprise, but also to make more complex managerial decisions and to forecast the situation. The conducted research with the use of this method has allowed to get an estimation of activity of restaurant businesses by integrating several indicators, to identify those criteria, which will allow to make the right managerial decisions on improving the effectiveness of management policy in the region, to identify depressed areas that need investment and state regulation. The scientific novelty lies in building a hierarchical model for evaluating the performance of restaurant businesses using fully matched pairwise comparison matrices obtained by transforming economic performance indicators into dimensionless criteria for Thomas Saati's hierarchical model. Hierarchy analysis has allowed to rank towns and districts by quantitatively assessing the level of efficiency of the restaurant industry, to identify those criteria, which will allow to make the right managerial decisions to improve the efficiency of the restaurant industry in cities and districts of the region.
