The QSR sector in South Africa is projected to reach $4.9bn (about R87bn) by 2026, driven by urbanisation and growing demand. KFC, with close to 1,200 outlets in South Africa alone, leads the industry in terms of new builds, thanks to its focus on innovation and sustainability [2].
Every new KFC restaurant is built to KFC's Building Green global standards, with 11 "must-haves" to create a healthy and environmentally friendly environment. KFC is also constantly exploring ways to reduce energy and water consumption in each restaurant [2].
KFC's track record of growth means it leads the industry in terms of new builds. The company is also a leader in social impact, with initiatives such as the Add Hope programme, which fights against child hunger [2].
