The 36th restaurant in KFC chain will be located in the vicinity of Metropolitan Cathedral. This will be the second restaurant opened by KFC in Timisoara.

The new unit which averages 355square meters will create 40 new jobs. The company expects the restaurant to add €1.5mln to the group’s sales within one calendar year.
