KFC is part of Yum! Brands, a global franchisor that also owns Pizza Hut and Taco Bell, three of the largest and most recognized franchises worldwide.
KFC franchise options come in various shapes and sizes, including these concepts:
- Drive-Thru: This is the most popular format, suitable for locations over 0.3 acres. We consider both vacant lots and conversions of existing buildings. A minimum of 20 parking spaces or shared parking is required.
- Small Box: A compact store design that delivers the same KFC experience in just 1,000 square feet. Ideal for high-footfall areas with a transient population, such as city suburbs, regional towns, and areas with a high student presence. Preferred locations include city centres, transport hubs, and local centres, with pull-up parking nearby.
- Restaurant: Featuring ample seating, these are located near retail or leisure areas. The layout is flexible, potentially including mezzanines, basements, or upper floors, with each restaurant uniquely designed. Ideal locations are city centres, regional towns, and out-of-town retail parks with high retail traffic and nearby residential areas.
- Food Court: Designed for communal seating or grab-and-go setups, perfect for service stations, airports, and busy shopping centres.
We seek investors with:
- £5 million in assets
- £2 million in liquid funds
Interested investors should have previous experience in hospitality and operations within the food and beverage sector, along with ambitions for growth across the UK and Ireland.
