based in Louisville, Kentucky, is the world's most popular chicken restaurant chain,
specializing in Original Recipe®, Extra Crispy™, Twister® and Colonel's Crispy
Strips® chicken with home style sides.

The first KFC outlet was opened in Gulshan-Iqbal in 1997 franchised

gradually we were able to work our way to a network of 35 outlets with a
lot more restaurants coming up.
To make KFC the ultimate choice of Quick Service Restaurant in Pakistan

experience with excellence in service. Through our devotion, dedication
and commitment, we have been able to maintain KFC’s position as the
market leader. `
 Casual dining for those who like to indulge themselves!
 In November 2003, the idea of a casual café by the name of Indulge was
conceptualized. With the sudden influx of café culture in Pakistan, Indulge
was to cater to the undying need for excitement and relaxation in people’s
day-to-day lives, accompanied by high quality food at affordable prices.
 Indulge chain of restaurants are a hip, trendy and happening “hang out” for
a relaxing eat-out. Targeted for the “young at heart” with ever-friendly
service and cheerful ambience that has become its trademark, Indulge as a
concept has certainly matured since its inception in May 2004.
We keep our customers intrigued by introducing new food items and have
succeeded in making their Indulge experience memorable time after time.
Indulge has been doing very well and has grown to 6 outlets with 5 in
Karachi and 1 in Multan bearing great potential to expand countrywide.

baked products. The products that Freshens will offer

excellent flavor and taste.

unmatched. Freshen aims to cater to every special

encompassing a mix of Middle Eastern cuisine. This
will be the first large-scale Arabic food concept in
Karachi, Pakistan. Arabic cuisine is in vogue and has
an increasing demand and since Karachietes love
dining out and trying out new and different places we
feel Nafura will be just the place for them.
