Sri Lanka’s Largest Quick-Service Restaurant Company
Restaurants
Cargills is the exclusive franchisee of Kentucky Fried Chicken (KFC) and TGI Fridays in Sri Lanka. Today, Cargills operates the largest Quick Service Restaurant (QSR) chain in Sri Lanka by revenue and volumes. We have expanded the KFC operation over the years, since obtaining the franchise license in 1996, with a view to bringing international experiences to the local market. KFC now has a presence in all provinces of Sri Lanka and its expansion has built sustainable markets for the poultry industry and for suppliers of key raw materials, some of whom have been developed to international standards to meet KFC’s international guidelines and requirements. We source over 90% of our raw materials from within Sri Lanka, driving income back to local communities.
KFC first opened its doors in Sri Lanka in 1996 at the Majestic City shopping complex. Since then, this globally loved and fast-growing retail restaurant chain has expanded to all provinces of Sri Lanka. We are passionate about serving our customers with freshly prepared, great tasting food. We also support the local farming and livestock industry by sourcing the best local ingredients while maintaining KFC's strict international standards.
The secret of KFC lies in a world-famous-recipe, Colonel Harland Sanders' signature blend of 11 herbs and spices, which even today is under lock and key at the headquarters in Kentucky, USA. Moreover, a key reason behind the success of KFC in Sri Lanka was also the locally inspired dishes which we introduced to the menu, such as the KFC Chicken Biriyani, KFC Spice Rice, KFC Chicken Submarine, KFC BBQ Chicken and Faluda Krusher. These introductions created a fusion of an international brand with well-loved Sri Lankan recipes to suit the local tastes.
In 2013, we franchised and introduced TGI Fridays to Sri Lanka cater to a fast-growing leisure and entertainment sector. From flavorful American style cuisine to the perfect ambience and setting, guaranteeing you a good time is the perfect excuse for you to come visit us at TGI Fridays.
