Jardine Matheson sells KFC, Pizza Hut assets for $400M

Jardine Matheson is divesting its KFC and Pizza Hut franchise assets across Hong Kong, Macau, Taiwan, Myanmar, and Vietnam, with an estimated 1,000 stores and 25,000 employees. The sale, valued at approximately $400 million, has attracted bids from Yum China, The Carlyle Group, and Uni-President, among others. This move aligns with a broader trend of foreign fast-food brands in Asia transferring operational control to local capital, while retaining brand and intellectual property rights. AI
