its location, such as factor rating method, cost-profit-volume analysis, and
transportation and simulation models. KFC considers lot of factors in designing
their facility. Since they are operating in a saturated and a highly competitive
market, they need to keep the prices low. For this, they choose locations that are
available at low costs. All these decisions will help them to keep the price of their
product low. They locate their outlets where proper infrastructure is available and
where there is abundance of skilled labor. This can reduce labor cost as they are
easily available and easy access to stores for consumers is possible. Most of the
stores of KFC are franchised, which reduces their maintenance efforts. They
simply conduct regular quality checks to ensure that all the required standards
are met. Their facility layout decisions are influence by the volume of production,
fragility of the product, nature of the service to be provided and the costs required
to build the operations area. Their outlets are brightly lit, with attractive color
schemes and comfortable seating arrangement and a warm and welcoming staff.
