Would be interesting to see the revenue difference between the halal ones and the ones that serve the glorious pig flesh.
Halal ones will be in higher traffic areas, popular malls and frequented areas. I suspect those have more foot traffic so will show higher turnovers.

Thats what I'd love to actually see a breakdown of.

TBH in the Halal capital of SA (at least in my opinion), KZN.. many BKs have actually folded because I personally think they massively misread the market demand for pig flesh.

Depending on where of course.

In Pta? Doubt that.

in KZN, For sure.

I am not a big fan of junk food.
I used to be back in the 90s when I had a concrete mixer for a stomach
But years of bodily abuse has taught me to look after myself now and the only kak I eat would be my daily braais

Not going to search but I’ll guess that the stores in Menlyn Mall and any close to university will be halal and have a high turnover for Pta.

Even in KZN, it didn't work...

I know of 2 BKs in very busy malls that folded quite quickly after launching... their footprint in KZN is very very limited actually.

Holy crap, I got vaguely intrigued so went and checked.. there is a non halal BK in Durbs now... I thought all the ones in KZN would stay halal from the press release ages ago...

Interesting if true or backed up by financials. I’ll be surprised if it were just for the bacon. Was there other products sold other than just bacon?
As far as I know the products were all still halal just the bacon that was added.
