COMPETITIVE LANDSCAPE
Large chains retain strong presence within non-standalone locations
Large chains such as KFC, McDonald’s, Debonairs, and Steers maintain a strong presence in high-traffic travel locations, particularly airports, where they serve a largely captive audience of time-pressed travellers seeking convenience and familiar meal options. These brands benefit from steady footfall, limited direct competition within terminals, and menus or service adaptations tailored to the needs of international travellers.
Key players place increasing emphasis on standalone drive-throughs
KFC maintains a strong presence in standalone locations, supported by a national network spanning both metropolitan areas and smaller towns, while its emphasis on drive-through formats allows it to serve a wide consumer base. Other major chains are also increasingly investing in standalone units, particularly drive-through outlets, to meet growing demand for quick and accessible dining.
