The company was expected to operate 1,700 KCoffee cafes across the country by the end of 2025, up from the previous target of 1,500 outlets, according to CEO Joey Wat.<\/p>\n

“KCoffee Cafes have been effective in driving incremental traffic, sales and profit,” she said at a briefing on Tuesday evening, according to a copy of the minutes seen by the Post. “Average cups sold at the cafes continued to increase in the quarter, bolstered by our menu innovations and growth in delivery.”<\/p>\n

Yum China would need to open 1,000 cafes in 2025 to meet its goal; it managed 700 outlets as of December 2024.<\/p>\n

By June, the company ran 1,300 KCoffee cafes after opening 300 new outlets in the second quarter of this year. The KCoffee business uses KFC store space to serve customers coffee.<\/p>\n

“We are always exploring ways to broaden our addressable market,” Wat said. “With the strength of our brands and our strategies, we are confident in delivering sustainable, long-term value for our shareholders.”<\/p>\n

She spoke after Yum China said its second-quarter net profit rose 1.4 per cent from a year earlier to US$215 million. The company’s diluted earnings per share of US$0.58 beat a consensus estimate of US$0.56 from a Bloomberg survey of analysts.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
