Jollibee UK

Over 1,400 stores and counting… Jollibee is famous across the world for delicious crispy fried chicken and fast-food classics with a tropical twist. Founded in 1978 by Tony Tan Caktiong in the Philippines, the company was built up from humble ice cream store beginnings, then later on expanded to hot food. Jollibee quickly became the market leader in the Philippines’ fast food industry and by 1998, was a globally successful business. The brand continues to be owned by Jollibee Group with over 1,400 locations across Asia, Europe, the US and the UK. Jollibee serves up the crispiest, juiciest and tastiest fried chicken around, with a diverse menu including Jollibee Chicken Sandwich, hotdogs, fries, desserts and refreshing drinks. Chickenjoy is our signature dish based on the family’s special recipe, hand-breaded in store for extra crispiness. Another favourite is Jolly Spaghetti, made with a Filipino inspired sweet-style sauce, loaded with layers of cheese and hot dog slices. These unique dishes have earned the brand a cult following around the globe, from Hong Kong to New York and now here in the UK. Parent company, Jollibee Group, now has over 5,800 stores globally and operates in 33 countries. In the U.S., Jollibee Group owns the major food brands Smashburger and The Coffee Bean & Tea Leaf. The company also owns the Filipino franchise for Burger King. To this day, Jollibee still outperforms both McDonald’s and KFC in the Philippines. Looking to the future, Jollibee intends to open 50 stores in the UK by 2025, with further plans to expand in Italy, Spain and other European markets.
