Might be good, but the important question here is, are they still selling buckets of oil with some chicken?

Makes sense... Cyril wanted 4IR for the voters.

So basically KFC are copying what McD's has been doing for years then...

They did when they were hosing down those chickens in Braamfontein.

That building is huge. Waste of space.

Add some usb ports, up the property "value" by 800% and call something "high tech cloud driven premises".

Love IT innovation etc, but it's 90% marketing bs.

Also, you don't high tech anything in a place that can't keep the lights on for a week straight.

They should try the drive-thru concept in the store but with people...

...oh wait, that's a queue

Despite automating some of the processes typically handled by human workers, the new outlet employs 25 people from the Khayelitsha township, with the scope to add five more “imminently"

Why Khayelitsha though?

Does their drive-through still take an hour?
Take a look at most KFC reviews on google maps. 2 stars. That company does not know what service is.
