#1 Yum! is #1 in
four restaurant
categories in
the U.S.!
OPEN
Our International Division (YRI) has had another
exceptional year in 2007. Strong international system sales
growth of 15% and a record 852 new unit openings drove
$480 million in operating profits, up 18% over prior year.
The KFC Brand in particular had a spectacular year inter-
nationally. Our big franchise businesses in Asia, the Middle
East, South Africa and Europe excelled as did the company
operated markets of KFC UK, Mexico and KFC Australia.
But we’re even more excited by the potential for future
growth than we are about the scale and breadth of our
business today. Our two big brands, KFC and Pizza Hut,
still have enormous unit growth opportunities as well
as scope for unit volume gains through new layers like
breakfast, beverages and additional proteins.
We’re ready to take Taco Bell global and to build our
new pizza delivery brand, Pizza Hut Delivery (PHD).
All in all, a world of opportunity everywhere we look.
Graham Allan, President, Yum! Restaurants International
