"Extending our presence in city centers is one of the 2020 objectives - says Corrado Cagnola, CEO of KFC Italia - 30% of our new openings this year will be in urban centers and having arrived in the heart of Catania is therefore for us particularly important for this too. Sicily is confirmed as an extremely receptive region towards our brand, which is already present with 4 restaurants, 3 of which are in the Catania area, and is therefore strategic for our development.
