Philippines fast food giant Jollibee opened its third branch in Fai Chi Kei yesterday, just after four months of opening its Taipa branch. The catering chain opened its first restaurant in Macau in 2018, where it drew large Filipino crowds lining up as early as 8 a.m. In the Phillippines, Jollibee Foods Corporation (JFC) operates the largest food service network, operating 2,967 restaurant outlets. Jollibee Worldwide, a unit of JFC’s, has completed the acquisition of Hong Kong-based Tim Ho Wan in August 2021 by paying USD53.25 million for the 15% share that it did not yet own. Now, the firm fully owns the Michelin starred restaurant chain.
