Background of Pizza Hut

The legacy of Pizza Hut® began in 1958, when two college students from

Wichita, Kansas, Frank and Dan Carney, were approached by a family friend

with the idea of opening a pizza parlor. Although the concept was relatively new

to many Americans at that time, the brothers quickly saw the potential of this new

enterprise.

Over the past four decades the Pizza Hut has built a reputation for excellence

that has earned the respect of consumers and industry experts alike. Pizza Hut’s

products have been voted Number One in countless consumer surveys

nationwide.

Pizza Hut®, a division of Tricon Global Restaurants, Inc., has more than 7,200

units in the U.S. and 3,000 units in more than 86 other countries. Pizza Hut is

owned by Pepsi Internationals who also owns Tacobell and KFC.

Pizza Hut is commitment to quality, dedication to service and value & the

qualities of entrepreneurship, growth and leadership, which have characterized

its business through nearly four decades of success.

Tricon is the parent company to two other segment leaders, Taco Bell and KFC.

When combined with Pizza Hut, these organizations make up the world's largest

restaurant group, with almost twice as many units as McDonald's.

When it comes to leadership Pizza Hut has a proactive approach to product

development and marketing. The five major products, Pan Pizza, Thin 'N Crispy®

pizza, Hand-Tossed style pizza, Stuffed Crust Pizza and The Big New Yorker

Pizza are loved by millions around the world and have become the standard by

which all others are judged.

has to offer, and to provide those products wherever and whenever people want

were given away to generate interest in the fledgling business. And through the

strength of our heritage, our culture and our people, we look forward to even

more success in the years ahead.

Reason for considering corporate strategy

In the implementation stage of strategic management process, we have

designed TOWS and SPACE Matrix for Pizza Hut, and the strategic

thereby suggested were those of:

Intensive

Integration, and

Diversification.

Keeping in view these strategies and the results generated thereby in the

input stages of strategic management process as depicted in the iFEM and

EFEM matrix suggest that the firm is relatively week because of the

financial position where as EFE Matrix suggests that the firm is taking

advantage of strong environment stability and marketing condition.

In the QSPM model, we have deigned 3 strategies and these are as

follows:

Backward Integration

New Market Development

Concentric Diversification

27

Page 28: Pizza Hut

The 3 strategies thus considered have been given ratings from 1 to 4 and

the SWOT has been taken from the EFE Matrix and EFE Matrix along with

their weights.

REASON / JUSTIFICATION OF STRATEGIES DESIGNED

1. Backward IntegrationThe reason for designing and considering backward integration was

the fact that the costs of producing Pizzas have been rising

consistently since past few years, due to the exchange rate

fluctuation etc, and the fact that Pizza Hut Does not Hedge have a

direct impact on the costs of raw material and the most important

being flour. Therefore, the company can pursue the strategy of

backward integration and procure local flour of consistent high quality

which will not only reduce the costs of producing pizza but will also

increase its profit margin. Plus the supply of four will be in their own

hands and will not fact problems of under or oversupply of flour.

2. Marketing

Development

28

Page 29: Pizza Hut

Pizza Hut is currently pursuing marketing penetration strategy where as

we have designed new market development strategy along with the

currently used market penetration.

The reason being that there is a wide, untapped market in Pakistan

where Pizza Hut can open its branches and reap the benefits of 1st. entry

in those markets.

3.Concentric

DiversificationWe have designed a concentric diversification strategy which can be

considered by Pizza Hut. It can concentrate its business by opening a

Coffee shop or a dessert parlors separately as departments in the Pizza

Hut and offer special delicacies for each department. This will improve its

financial strengths and profits margin considerably.

29

Page 30: Pizza Hut

RECOMMENDATIONSThe QSPM total averae of the 3 strategies thus designed were:

STRATEGIES AVERAGEATTRACTIVE SCORE

Backward Integration 5.41

Market Development 6.44

Concentric Diversification 4.53

Due to the low financial condition of Pizza Hut and internal problems whereas,

excellent market condition with developing tastes and preference for Pizzas, it is

highly recommended that Pizza Hut must pursue New Market Development

Strategy.

ADVANTAGE

The Advantages of pursuing New Marketing Development Strategy are as follow:

1. Ist. to enter in the new market, therefore no competition, so Pizza hut can

reep the gains of 1st. to enter.

2. Strong Brand Name.

3. Innovations in menu will attract new consumers.
