KFC is having a very good atmosphere for its employee to work and the corporate culture

is also good to deal with but there is little problem with the management issues that should be

solved. The food quality and services offered by KFC are excellent.

Logistics and supply chain management is crucial to any business and is especially important in
a fast food business with a global presence like KFC. When evaluating the efficiency of a certain
point in the supply chain, the criteria shouldn’t be just the monetary cost involved in the process
but the value added at each point should also be given equal weight. In order to avoid any other
faux pas in the future that could potentially turn into a logistical nightmare of the magnitude KFC
is just recovering from in the UK, contingencies should be built and the decision-making process
should involve an in-depth research and permutations of the possible outcomes while taking into
account all the aspects in which the decision can affect the business operations before making
any major decisions like changing the logistics partner.
