Malaysia pusat serantau ChicKing

Restoran makanan segera baharu, ChicKing Fried Chicken (ChicKing) merancang untuk menjadikan Malaysia sebagai pusat komersialnya di rantau ini dengan membuka 25 buah restoran dalam tempoh tiga tahun.

ChicKing yang dimiliki oleh Kumpulan Al Bayan dari Emiriah Arab Bersatu (UAE) turut merancang membuka 25 buah restoran lagi di rantau ini antaranya ialah Singapura, Indonesia, Thailand, Kemboja, Vietnam, Brunei, Filipina, China dan Taiwan.

Pengarah Urusan Banquet Foods International, A.K. Mansoor berkata, Malaysia dipilih sebagai pusat komersial ChicKing berdasarkan tiga perkara iaitu insentif kerajaan yang menarik, bekalan bahan mentah dan status halal yang diiktiraf di peringkat dunia.

Katanya, ChicKing akan mengaplikasikan dua strategi jualan di Malaysia menerusi pembukaan restoran dengan menggunakan dana sendiri atau memperkenalkan sistem francais dan kiosk melibatkan usahasama dengan Pusat Pembangunan Usahawan Siswazah Malaysia (Pusmal).

"Dianggarkan pelaburan sebanyak RM500,000 diperlukan untuk sebuah restoran dan berdasarkan perancangan kami, 20 daripada 25 buah restoran ChicKing akan difrancaiskan.

"Setakat ini ChicKing sudah beroperasi di pusat membeli belah Tropicana City Mall, Petaling Jaya dan Dataran Pahlawan, Melaka manakala sebuah lagi di Shah Alam berdekatan dengan Universiti Teknologi Mara (UiTM) akan dibuka bulan hadapan," katanya.

Beliau berkata demikian pada sidang akhbar selepas majlis perasmian restoran pertama ChicKing di Tropicana City di sini hari ini.

Turut hadir Pengerusi Pusmal, Datuk Dr. Azarae Idris, Pengarah Eksekutif Pusmal, Ab. Azid Che Karim dan Pengarah Operasi BFI Food India, Dr. M. A. Babu.

ChicKing kini telah membuka 40 restoran di sepuluh negara dan merancang untuk menambah 13 buah lagi sebelum akhir tahun ini untuk mencapai sasaran 300 restoran menjelang tahun 2015.

Mansoor berkata, ChicKing sesuai untuk semua lapisan umur dan harga yang ditawarkan sangat kompetitif serta lebih murah berbanding restoran makanan segera yang lain.

"Untuk permulaan kami akan mengembangkan restoran di sekitar Lembah Klang secara berperingkat sebelum ke negeri-negeri lain," jelasnya.

Sementara itu, Datuk Dr. Azarae berkata, Pusmal akan bekerjasama dengan ChicKing bagi menjalankan projek keusahawanan di kalangan siswazah melalui program jualan secara kiosk.

"Kami sedang mengadakan perbincangan dengan pengurusan ChicKing untuk menetapkan harga francais secara kiosk serendah mungkin agar mampu dimiliki oleh siswazah.

"Sasaran awal Pusmal berkenaan harga kios adalah antara RM10,000 hingga RM20,000 dan projek akan berjalan dalam masa terdekat dimulai dengan latihan industri terlebih dahulu," katanya.

ChicKing Spreads Its Wings to Malaysia

ChicKing, a fast growing food chain that is on a global expansion mode, will soon serve its spicy crunchy chicken blend with herbs to Malaysian consumers.

A.K. Mansoor, an Indian entrepreneur who established ChicKing Fried Chicken, has ambitious plans to make it a global brand by opening another 200 outlets by 2012. Currently, he owns 20 restaurants, mainly in West Asia and India.

"We have decided to open three outlets in Kuala Lumpur before March next year. This is part of our global expansion plan. Malaysia is a good market as fried chicken is popular among Malaysians.

The company, headquartered in Dubai, plans to spend about RM400, 000 to establish each outlet as a family dinning destination in Kuala Lumpur and later expand operations on the franchise model.

ChicKing was first started in the UAE in 2000 under Banquet Foods International -- part of the Dubai-based Al Bayan Group of Companies -- and quickly established its footprint overseas.

Asked how the company plans to position itself in the competitive Malaysian market, Mansoor said: "We are competitive on pricing and have an established quality brand name.

Besides Malaysia, in the region, Singapore and Indonesia are on Mansoor's expansion roadmap.
