The franchise holder of the Kentucky Fried Chicken (KFC) brand in Indonesia, PT Fast Food Indonesia (FAST), plans to open between 60 and 65 new outlets in and outside Java to tap into the country’s growing food retail market.
FAST business development general manager Gandhi Lie said on Tuesday that his firm would spend around IDR240 billion (US$19.2 million) on the expansion, of which about IDR200 billion would be used to open 40 to 45 new “stand alone” outlets, with the remaining IDR40 billion to set up 20 “KFC box” outlets.
“We will use our internal cash as well as partner with landlords to build the new outlets next year,” he said without providing details on the composition of each source of funds.
