KFC: five year UK expansion drive

The fast food chain, which already has 760 outlets in the UK, has benefited from the downturn as consumers shift to cheaper dining options.

KFC UK chief executive Martin Shuker said that in 2008 the chain opened 36 restaurants with a further 44 due to open this year.

The new restaurants are part of a £150m investment programme that will create around 9,000 jobs in the UK.
