KFC in partial return to ex-supplier Bidvest

Fast-food chain KFC has returned to its old supplier after suffering chicken shortages that forced it to close hundreds of outlets. Last month, the chain experienced widespread distribution problems after it decided to switch its logistics contract from Bidvest to DHL. But now Bidvest has signed a new agreement with KFC UK & Ireland to supply up to 350 of its 900 restaurants. Until 13 February, all KFC's chicken was delivered by Bidvest. "Our focus remains on ensuring our customers can enjoy our chicken without further disruption," said a KFC spokesperson. Paul Whyte of Bidvest said the firm was "Delighted" to resume its partnership with KFC. He added: "KFC are a valued customer and we will provide them with a seamless return to our network."
