system with over 32,500 KFC, A&W All-American Food™,Taco Bell, Long John
Silver's and Pizza Hut restaurants in more than 100 countries and territories.
Operation in Pakistan:
KFC came to Pakistan in 1996 with the first branch opening in Karachi and later in
Lahore. The Franchisee was a Pakistani owned and operated, Dubai-based Company the
Cupola Group, which owns licenses and its own restaurant throughout Pakistan and the
middle-east. The company's creative have been changed significantly over the years to
promote a Pakistani image rather than an American one, after the invasion of Afghanistan
and Iraq, which resulted in loss of significant business.
Procurement Issues
All the raw materials like chicken are bought from value chicken, vegetables from
Monsalwa and they use caned fruit for salads. The machinery is all automated and is in
conformance to international standards. KFC officials often visit the outlets without
giving prior notice in order to check the conformance to quality standards and
procedures. Moreover, Food Inspection Teams from Health Ministry visits twice a year
to ensure Hygienic Conditions at the Kitchen.
Performance Overview
KFC has taken advantage of all these excellent investment opportunities that Pakistan
offers for franchising and has expanded and penetrated the market a lot. KFC has adapted
to the legal and political environment and conditions of Pakistan. The Pakistani culture
has also molded the operations of KFC in Pakistan. All the outlets of KFC in Pakistan
present Pakistani food culture. KFC has displayed banners that it servers Halal food all
over its outlets which represents Pakistani culture. They also offer families’ deals as the
people are very close to their families and like to have food with them. KFC has also
brought some changes in the culture of Pakistan. The most significant is the way it has
changed the eating habits of the local population. People now are aware of unhygienic
conditions that prevail in some of local restaurants. And KFC has also brought the idea of
self-service in Pakistan.

Current Position
KFC is serving 18 big cities of Pakistan in different region in the country. It has 62
outlets around the country providing different menu items for different cities.
First KFC:
The restaurant in North Corbin, Kentucky where Colonel Sanders developed Kentucky
Fried Chicken.
Born and raised in Henryville, Indiana, Sanders passed through several professions in his
lifetime. Sanders first served his fried chicken in 1930 in the midst of the Great
Depression at a gas station he owned in North Corbin, Kentucky. The dining area was
named "Sanders Court & Café" and was so successful that in 1936 Kentucky Governor
Ruby Laffoon granted Sanders the title of honorary Kentucky Colonel in recognition of
his contribution to the state's cuisine.
The following year Sanders expanded his restaurant to 142 seats, and added a motel he
bought across the street. When Sanders prepared his chicken in his original restaurant in
North Corbin, he prepared the chicken in an iron skillet, which took about 30 minutes to
do, too long for a restaurant operation.
In 1939, Sanders altered the cooking process for his fried chicken to use a pressure fryer,
resulting in a greatly reduced cooking time comparable to that of deep frying. In 1940
Sanders devised what came to be known as his Original Recipe.
The Sanders Court & Café generally served travelers, often those headed to Florida, so
when the route planned in the 1950s for what would become Interstate 75 bypassed
Corbin; he sold his properties and traveled the U. S. to sell his chicken to restaurant
owners.
The first to take him up on the offer was Pete Harman in South Salt Lake, Utah; together,
they opened the first "Kentucky Fried Chicken" outlet in 1952. By the early 1960s
Kentucky Fried Chicken was sold in over 600 franchised outlets in both the United States
and Canada. One of the longest-lived franchisees of the older Col. Sanders' chicken
concept, as opposed to the KFC chain, was the Kenny Kings chain. The company owned
many Northern Ohio diner-style restaurants, the last of which closed in 2004.
Sanders sold the entire KFC franchising operation in 1964 for $2 million USD Since that
time, the chain has been sold three more times, most recently to PepsiCo, which made it
part of its Tricon Global Restaurants division, which in turn was spun off in 1997, and
has now been renamed to Yum! Brands. Additionally, Colonel Sanders' nephew, Lee
Cummings, took his own Kentucky Fried Chicken franchises (and a chicken recipe of his
own) and converted them to his own "spin-off" restaurant chain, Lee's Famous Recipe
Chicken.
Today, some of the older KFC restaurants have become famous in their own right. One
such restaurant is located in Marietta, Georgia. This store is notable for a 56-foot (17 m)
tall sign that looks like a chicken. The sign, known locally as the Big Chicken, was built
for an earlier fast-food restaurant on the site called Johnny Reb's Chick, Chuck and
Shake. It is often used as a travel reference point in the Atlanta area by locals and pilots.
The original handwritten recipe is kept locked away at the KFC corporate headquarters in
Louisville, Kentucky as a closely-guarded secret. Only two members within the Yum!
Corporation knows the recipe in its entirety.
5-Market Share:
KFC has a very long history and has the most recognize able brand in chicken with over
50% of the market share. It becomes difficult for the companies like Sub way, Mc
Donald’s, Chicken planet, Dixie or those who may want to enter in the market of fast
food restaurants.
(A&W) are located in the same fast- food industry, the referent standard is the
industry growth rate measured against the SBUs’ growth rate. The underlying theory for
examining market growth rate is the industry life cycle. The BCG assumes that growth
rates (life cycle stages) affect a firm’s finances.

B-CURRENT TARGET MARKET:
KFC
KFC will be using differentiated market coverage strategy. It means that different
marketing mix will be used for different age groups.
After evaluation of various segments, KFC has decided to target the market of urban and
Sub-urban Areas of Pakistan.
There are so many factors that are effect the sales of KFC. These includes over all
world economic crises, terrorism, political instability of Pakistan, bird flu disease, etc.
There are following factors that can influence the sale as increase or decrease.
Now in these days all global has economic crisis all round the world that has bad
impact on the KFC sale. Due to gradually decrease in per capita income of Pakistan’s
economy also decreasing the annual sale of KFC Fast Food Chain all around the
country as well as world.
It is a graph that shows the sale of KFC high point indicates the before Economic
crisis and low point indicates the after Economic crisis.
It is also a great danger for the KFC because they are chicken specialist in the world
and perfect in taste. If there is any bird flu disease in any part of the world it
automatically has impact on Pakistan’ KFC fast food chain in the country. The
demand of the chicken decreases the sale of the KFC also decreases in the business
process.
Terrorism:
It is a big problem for Pakistan’s economy as well as KFC. Last two years the
terrorism increases that has bad impact on the KFC annual sale and the assets loss in
different cities in the country. In Karachi, Peshawar, Quetta and other big cities in
which KFC is serving its services has huge loss, assets are insured but the daily sale
is decrease due to breakdown in daily operations that are not carried out by the
Franchises.
These factors have reduced the sales of KFC but they are competing with these
factors by offering better quality, healthy products and by offering affordable prices.
D) PEST ANALYSIS:
Pest analysis includes how political, economical, social and technological factors are
effecting the organization. Every organization faces these factors for running the
business process in the world. Organization can not neglect these factors. These
factors are not controllable by the organization.
POLITICAL FECTORS:
Marketing and business decisions are strongly affected by the changing in political
environment. There are different factors such as laws on business employment;
pollution and taxation apply on the organization which it has to follow regarding the
rules.
The political instability of Pakistan is affecting the progress of KFC. Some of their
outlets have burned in Karachi at the death of Benzir Bhoto. Now a day so side
bombers are also a big danger for KFC. Govt. also has increased the sales tax from 15
% to 21%that has raised the prices of their products. Some of their products are
banded by the government because these are not Halal from Islam point of view.
Instability of Government:
Instability of the government in the country is also big danger for the organization
because due to change in the Govt; policies of the country also changes specially in
Pakistan.
In last months war between American forces and Taliban’s forces in Peshawar and
Swat has impact on KFC’s operation in these cities in which it has more than 90 %
share like Peshawar. It is an American base company therefore people think
ECONOMICAL FECTORS:
It includes the following sub factors which has impact on the organization business
process in the Pakistan.
Purchasing Power:
It also has great impact of the business process in any areas of the world like Pakistan
because if there is high purchasing power then KFC can earn more profits and there is
low purchasing power then it might be loss for the firm.
If there is economic growth in the country and per capita income is increasing due to
increase in GDP. Purchasing power of the people will also increase so they will spend
more on purchasing.
But there is a down fall in the economy of Pakistan. Growing inflation has reduced the
purchasing power of people. Unemployment also has increased that has reduced the
purchasing power of people. These economic crises are a danger for KFC.
SOCIAL FACTORS:
Culture element includes the attitudes, values, norms, beliefs, behaviors and
associated demographic trends that are features of a given geographic area.

Multinational company faces the challenge to understand about the culture of that
country where they work. To solve these problems KFC hire all employees of local
area and now it is easy for them to understand about the culture of Pakistan.
Hilal Food:
KFC management knows about that Pakistan is a Muslim country; therefore they use
100% Halal (Zibiha) chicken. KFC start their branches in those cities which are
famous for food eating. Pakistani people like spicy foods, therefore KFC also provide
spicy foods in Pakistan.
KFC open its branches in advance cities of Pakistan like Lahore, Karachi, and
Islamabad/Rawalpindi etc. In these cities mostly come out with their family because
KFC mainly focus family.
TECHNOLOGICAL FECTORS:
Technology is very important for the success of any organization. Because without
modern technology no organization can compete in the market.
KFC is using modern technology for cooking and modern cooking recopies to get the
competitive advantage.
KFC is the first who introduce the baking system in front of customer to satisfy the
customer. It means that all the cocking, baking and all other work that is involved in
the preparation of the fast food.
They are also maintaining customer data base management system and modern
marketing techniques for long lasting relations with their customers.
Feedback:
It is also an effective tool for customer relationship management, for this purpose
every KFC’s outlet has drop box for complaint and suggestion for a particular
problem or issue, because in this tool customer can direct contact therefore it is an
effective tool.
Forum:
It is also a direct contact tool for the customer relationship management. In which
customer can put his/her complain and suggestion in the company’s web site for a
particular branch in the country.
Mobile Vane:
If any customer has any problem or suggestion regarding to the any branch/person
he/she can contact the mobile vane supervisor because mobile vane can reach at your
door step for delivery in the particular areas.
In Peshawar KFC is providing its services for 24 hours and each and every
product is available at any time. While its competitors are not providing services at
night. So this is the reason that it to much successful in that city and in this way it
creating customer relation management with citizens.
Every product has its life cycle whether it is successful or not in the market. This cycle
has four stages given below in the diagram.
Now discuss the KFC product line according to their life cycle
Introduction:
In this stage following product are included according to their life cycle
Hot Wings:

G-PRICING STRATIGIES:
Price is a money reward in return of some value given by the producer to its customer. It
is important for any stage of product life cycle whether it is introduction or maturity.
Price decision is a vital role to capture the market share.
There are following pricing strategies for the product regarding its life cycle in the
marketing conducted by the KFC.
A + Profile:
It is another name of Skimming price in which high price is charged by the KFC. When
KFC launch new products in the market the high price will charge by the KFC. For
example there is new product will launch in the market it is charged A + Profile pricing.
It is a new product will launch in the existing cities in the country the Skimming price
will charge to the customer because the cost is high. When with the passage of the time it
decreases the sale the low price is charged by the KFC.
A Profile:
It is comparatively low price as compare to the Skimming price. It is charged when the
sale of the product is decrease or the cost of the product line is achieved by the KFC.
B Profile:
It also called as market penetration price in which low price is charge to capture the
market share in low income areas.
KFC during pricing their products keep the different points in the mind like they adopt
the cost base price strategy. Pricing of the product includes the Government taxes and
excise duties and then they come at final stage of determine the price of their products.
KFC prices of products are a bit high according to the market segment and it is also
compatible to the stander of their products.
Now suppose manufacturer wants to earn 25% mark up on sale. The manufacturer mark
up price is calculated:
Mark Up Price = Unit Cost / (1 – Desired Return on Sales)
=1.135 / (1-.25)
= 1.135 / 0.75
= $1.51
KFC also uses cost based price for old and new products in the market.
H-CHANNEL MANAGEMENT:
It is a link between consumer and producer. If the channel management system is strong
it is helpful to satisfy the customers by delivering the quick service. It has two types.
KFC is using Direct Channel Management System for satisfying the customers by
providing them superior value by their own Experience. There is no compromise on
customer satisfaction and quality. For this purpose KFC adopts the franchising system
which is beneficial for both (KFC and customers).
In the case of the KFC the placement of the product is not important but the placement of
the restaurant is important.
All the franchises are controlled by Cupola (Yum international). There are six brands
