Hello mich73-ga,
This was a much tougher search than I expected. It seems that there
are a number of very expensive market research reports that contain
the information you?re looking for and information available for free
is limited. I?ve been able to get quite a few statistics on the major
American players who pioneered entry into the Chinese fast food
market. I was also able to identify the names of additional players
but many times I couldn?t locate exact numbers of store outlets.
I?ve organized the results of my research into sections so that you
can make better sense of the findings. At the top I?ve pulled together
a summary from all the articles I?m including in this research. Next,
I gave you the articles about the major American companies because
information about them is readily available. The information on
Chinese style fast food outlets available on the open Web is much more
limited. The section on the market research reports will give you the
option to pay for getting detailed information. I suggest that you
look at the table of contents for each of these reports because they
are quite revealing. I?ve included the lists of major and secondary
companies from one of these to help give you a preview of what is
available for a price.
Finally, it seems that the Chinese fast food market is growing and
changing very quickly and will get an additional boost as China gets
ready for the 2008 Olympics. The reports I?ve found may already be
outdated but they will give you an overview of current trends.
I hope that you will find this information helpful. Please don?t
hesitate to ask for clarification on anything that is unclear.
Wishing you well for your projects.

FAST FOOD IN BEIJING
Pizza Hut has 7 locations in Beijing, and this is the most upscale of
all the local fast food outlets
Fast food outlets seem to be opening as quick as you can blink in
Beijing. If you feel like listening to country music, you can have BBQ
ribs and rotisserie chicken at one of the several Kenny Rogers about
town. The side dishes are especially good here -- baked beans,
macaroni salad, corn-on-the-cob, and many more. Dunkin' Donuts has
four locations at the moment, but there are plans for several more. Or
if you would rather have a mug of root beer, there is an A & W in the
Haidian District (opposite People's University), with three more
restaurants in the works. There are also two Subway franchises where
you can have a 6 inch or 12 inch sub, on wheat or white, just like you
would at home -- a Ham and Cheese sub, just to give you an idea, will
set you back 12 yuan for the small, and 19 for the large.

Fast-Food Restaurants: Just What Eastern China's Consumers Ordered
Kentucky Fried Chicken (KFC) leads the way with 140 restaurants in the
People's Republic of China, followed by McDonald's, Japan's Mos Burger
and local Western-style fast-food chains such as California Fried
Chicken, Ronghua Fried Chicken and Hong Kong's Cafe de Coral. Chain
restaurants are emerging led by Pizza Hut and Gino's. California Beef
Noodle King and Doujiang Dawang lead a wide variety of Chinese
fast-food restaurants. Japanese fast food is becoming more popular.
Over the next few years, an even larger number of both familiar and
new establishments are expected.
Japan's Mos Burger ?. With 1,400 restaurants in Japan and Singapore
and 16 in east China, Mos Burger has plans to expand further into east
China next year, ?
Ronghua Chicken is the leading local KFC-type spin-off with 11 stores
across east China.
California Fried Chicken (CFC) is similar to Ronghua with seven
stores. CFC intends to provide fast food at affordable prices.
Chinese-Style, Fast-Food Restaurants Growing
In addition to Western-style, fast-food restaurants, those
specializing exclusively in Chinese food have been experiencing
phenomenal growth as consumers demand sanitation and convenience.
California Beef Noodle King leads this category with 100 restaurants
countrywide and 15 in east China.
Doujiang Dawang has 12 stores in Shanghai and four opening soon in Beijing.
Chain Restaurants Are More Expensive
Pizza Hut, with 25 outlets in China, opened its first Shanghai
restaurant in 1996 and continues to expand.
Chalon is a new entry in China's chain-restaurant category.
Hartz Texas-Style Chicken Buffet opened its first restaurant last fall
in downtown Shanghai with 500 seats. It hopes to open 12 more
restaurants in Shanghai before the end of 1997.
Gino's Pasta-Cappuccino specializes in Italian-style cuisine, premium
coffee drinks and desserts.
Swensen's Ice Cream from the United States is at the upper end of the
chain restaurant pricing scale. It plans to open a total of six
restaurants in Shanghai by 1998.

Fast Food for Thought
KFC hit the Chinese mainland in Beijing in 1987. McDonald's came in
1992. Other Western fast food places, such as Pizza Hut, Kenny Roger's
Roasters, and A&W, as well as Yoshinoya from Japan, followed suit.
To most Chinese people, Western food is only an occasional
alternative. Their love for traditional food like rice and soy milk
dies hard, and Chinese fast food restaurants remain popular.
Malan Noodles, Xinya Dabao (New Asia Snacks), and some other Chinese
fast food stores have spared no expense to improve food hygiene
levels.
Twin Seeds, a food enterprise that boasts 28 outlets in Guangdong
Province, took the lead in standardizing chain restaurants.
Malan Noodles is China's largest fast food chain group; it learned how
to franchise from KFC. Any applicant for a Malan franchise is
inspected by the group's head office. To date, the group has
established nearly 400 franchised outlets around China.
Chinese fast food Red Sorghum went under in 1999, and America's A&W
packed up in 2003.
South Kexueyuan Road in Beijing's Haidian District, just 300 meters
long, is lined with nearly 20 fast food restaurants, including
McDonald's and KFC, MIM of Japan, and Yonghe King and Liuhe Renjia of
China.
