This article is dedicated to econometric models for the development of catering services in tourism and hotels. The development of the tourism sector directly affects catering services in hotels. Econometric models are used to improve the efficiency of these services and predict future trends.The following key variables are considered when creating econometric models: tourist flow, hotel occupancy, catering service revenue, price level, service quality index, consumer expenditures, and regional gross domestic product. Keywords: Tourism, hotel, econometric model, tourism sector, catering, future trends, forecasting, tourist flow, hotel occupancy, catering service revenue, price level, service quality index, consumer expenditures, regional gross domestic product. Introduction Tourism, one of the service sectors for the development of new Uzbekistan, plays a major role in the development of countries. Tourism is a temporary travel of people outside their permanent residence and a stay there for a certain period of time, that is, to explore places, enjoy culture and nature. Tourism is one of the important sectors of the economy, which contributes to the economic development of countries, namely, the creation of jobs and the strengthening of international relations. There are several types of tourism. They: - ecological tourism - cultural tourism - beach tourism - extreme tourism - medical tourism - business tourism. Tourism is of great importance for countries. For example, it brings significant income to the country's economy, promotes cultural exchange, 42 ACADEMIC RESEARCH IN MODERN SCIENCE International scientific-online conference creates new jobs, and develops the infrastructure of the regions. Uzbekistan has great potential in the tourism sector, attracting tourists with historical cities such as Samarkand, Bukhara, Khiva, the Chimyan Mountains, the Aral Sea, and other attractions. In addition, the tourism industry is one of the leading sectors of the world economy and is a promising sector that brings high income to the national economy. The tourism sector is also developing well in our country. Uzbekistan has more than 7,300 cultural heritage sites, such as historical monuments, monuments built with the high talent of our great ancestors, and sacred places, and most of them are included in the UNESCO list. Therefore, in recent years, our state has been adopting many regulatory and legal documents to develop this area. In particular, in accordance with the Decree of the President of the Republic of Uzbekistan dated April 6, 2021 No. PF-6199 “On measures to further improve the state management system in the fields of tourism, sports and cultural heritage,” the Cultural Heritage Agency was established under the Ministry of Tourism and Sports. Given that the main tasks of the agency include the identification, registration, protection, promotion of tangible cultural heritage objects, maintaining a state register, electronic catalog, state cadastre, determining protected boundaries, and exercising state control in the field, it is important to conduct systematic scientific and methodological research on the further development of historical and cultural tourism in our country. Thus, it is relevant to analyze the current state of historical and cultural tourism, its development prospects, and its impact on the national economy. First of all, it is necessary to determine the content of the concept of "historical and cultural tourism". For example, efforts are being made to develop historical and cultural tourism in the Kashkadarya region. In particular, for the development of tourism, the number of places to rest should be further increased, and hotels should meet the demand. There are also many interesting historical monuments in the Kashkadarya region that attract tourists. For example, there are historical monuments that have stood the test of time, such as Oqsaroy, Kokgumbaz, and Amir Temur Cave. No matter how much we talk about the attractions in Kashkadarya, we will never reach the end. In the scientific works of foreign scientists who conducted scientific research on econometric modeling of the development of hotel and catering services in the context of innovative development trends and increasing sustainability of tourism, they cite 5 main components of the priority factors of the development of the industry today. In particular, the implementation of the 43 ACADEMIC RESEARCH IN MODERN SCIENCE International scientific-online conference optimal spatial distribution of hotel and catering facilities in the region, the establishment of innovative technical and technological measures in the development of hotel and catering services in the region, the development of optimal options for organizing hotel and catering services that ensure production efficiency in the region, decision-making at the level of the strategy for the prospective development of tourism and catering services, and the improvement of t
