Sphera Franchise Group, the holding owning KFC franchise in Romania, expands its restaurant network and marks a local premiere, opening the first units in gas stations through a partnership with Rompetrol.

KFC Drive Thru Pecica and KFC Orastie are two of the three restaurants that the company will operate within Rompetrol gas stations, located on the A1 highway.

The value of the investment in the new restaurant format is between 350,000 and 400,000 euros depending on the complexity of the services offered.

Both are equipped with ordering kiosks, digital menus, and digital boards that display the orders and their progress and will be open daily from 09:00 to 23:00.

KFC Drive Thru Pecica and KFC Orastie are the 96 and 97 restaurants in the Romanian network. The next KFC unit located within Rompetrol station will be inaugurated in the near future, at Giarmata, also on the A1 highway.
