KCOFFEE has announced the opening of its 200th store in China.

The launch of the new store follows two new openings at Hangzhou East Railway Station and Hangzhou International Airport.

The KCOFFEE side-by-side store model provides a café ambience adjacent to KFC China restaurants, and leverages shared kitchen facilities to reduce costs.

The model has facilitated the brand’s expansion to more than 120 cities in 31 provincial-level regions in China.

To celebrate the 200th store opening, KCOFFEE has introduced “Egg Tart Dirty Coffee,” a fusion of egg tart-flavoured coffee served in a crispy, edible pastry cup.

In June 2024 Yum China, Italian coffee maker Lavazza and super-sports car manufacturer Automobili Lamborghini launched a co-branded drink in China.
