On the Wings of Popularity
Poultry is - despite bird flu - a growth segment throughout Europe. Nevertheless, there are only relatively few restaurant chains specialising in chicken & co. World-market leader KFC is also the number one in Europe with over 1,000 outlets in 2007. However, the chicken-chain pioneer was the German Wienerwald brand, which reached its zenith at the end of the seventies/in the early eighties. While chicken chains generally make little progress, more and more full-range restaurants are discovering poultry for health and wellness oriented product innovations from burgers and wraps to hot salad toppings.
