A report in Haaretz adds that Kentucky Fried Chicken, which started operating in Israel in 1993, “had not realised its potential in Israel,” according to Dor Energy president Dudi Weisman. He added that his company would look for a new strategic investor, and that the fastfood chain would be integrated into the commercial facilities at Delek Alon and Dor Energy gasoline stations.
Dor Energy last week bought out the stake of its one-time partner in Kentucky Fried Chicken and Pizza Hut for US$350,000.
