Yum Brands’ KFC said it will acquire 218 restaurants from its largest franchisee EG Group in the UK and Ireland.
Once the deal is complete, all of the privately-owned EG Group’s KFC UK and Ireland businesses will come under Yum’s KFC UK and Ireland management.
The fast-food chain operator said it expects to finalise the transaction by the end of the first half of 2024.
It did not disclose financial terms of the deal.
