Both KFC and Pizzahut have been here in the past, and both went under

KFC hasn't been owned by Pepsi since 1997, when Yum! was spun off as a separate company.
And yes, I looked into what franchising it in Switzerland would cost. And the answer was: considerably more than I had. They're not interested in licensing just a single restaurant.

Maybe it's time for another try, KFC?
Not that I'm that much of a fan, but I'll prefer just about anything over yet another Döner place..

How are the prices at KFC in Switzerland? The reason I ask, is because lastnight, here in Toronto, I bought a 20 pc chicken, large fries, large gravy, 2 large macaronni and 1 large colslaw , and it cost $55.00 Cnd., and my family of 7 ate, with leftovers of chicken.

Döner is btw great, but the ones in Switzerland sucked - cause meat is so expensive that they subsitute it with the cheapest crap that is legal here... (I know I said so before but the majority of "Döner" sold in Switzerland would be outright illegal to be labelled as Döner in Germany...)

Sorry not a fan of KFC. It is many many years ago I had KFC in London, think it was around Queensway/Bayswater. It was not cooked through, threw it in the bin and never been back to any since. Problem with Franchises each shop will vary.
As said previously the price of chickens are a lot more than those battery ones they use.
