KFC is Co branding with Walls No such approach Environmental Trends Taken into account by KFC: Environmental Trends Taken into account by KFC KFC operates in a larger macro environment of forces that creates opportunities, but also threats. (Kotler et al 2003). A company such as KFC usually cannot influence trends in the macro environment, as they affect people and organisations on a larger scale.However, KFC has to carefully examine macro environmental trends and must create competitive responses to such trends.There are six major macro environmental forces KFC has to take into account.

Threats: Threats Legal Factors: Legal Factors As a certified fast food operator, there are many regulations and procedures that KFC should follow. For example is the Halal certification that becomes a concern to Muslim consumers. KFC should protect its integrity and consumer confidence by ensuring all materials and process are as claimed or must followed. Other legal requirement that the business owner should follow as stipulated in laws are such as operating hours, business registration, tax requirement, labor and employment laws and quality & environment certification (such as ISO) in which the outlet has been certified. The legal requirement is important because the offenders will be fined or have their business prohibited from operating which can be disastrous Political issues: Political issues The operations of KFC are affected by the government policies on the regulations of fast food operation. Currently government are controlling the marketing of fast food restaurant because of health concern such as cardiovascular and cholesterol issue and obesity among the young and children in the country. Governments also control the license given for open the fast food restaurant and other business regulation need to follow such as for a franchise business. Good relationship with government in giving mutual benefits such as employment and tax is a must for the company to succeed in any foreign market.
