RBD should buyout Nandos and grow it nationwide. Nandos chickens are the best. BBQ chicken with yummy hot mexican sauce.

The strategy should be to sell off Pissa Hut and Stardust. Buy Nandos so they can have a monopoly on the chicken market. KFC is lower end and Nandos mid level market.

At the moment the only winner RBD have in their stable is KFC. Both Pissa Hut and Stardust are dogs.

I investigated the Nandos model long before it came to NZ. I concluded that it would be too difficult to build a critical mass in NZ due to the price. Maybe Auckland and Wellington, but elsewhere, forget it.

They have found a way around the pricing though, at the Tauranga (Bayfair) Nandos they leave a choice off the menu in the combo's i.e they are shorting their customers without the customers actually knowing it.

KFC is a winner, especially in these tough times when a family can buy a bucket of chicken for less than a bottle of milk, plus bread and a block of cheese.
