Commenting on the development, Triton Pacific CEO Craig Faggen said: “We are thrilled to expand our Pizza Hut portfolio and increase our market share within the region.

“The addition of these locations will enhance our existing portfolio in Virginia and West Virginia and improve operational economies of scale.

“Quick service restaurants continue to perform well and have adapted to new safety and operational procedures.

“Pizza Hut was the first national chain to introduce contactless kerbside pickup, and we are pleased to be part of an organisation that puts the interests of its team members, customers, and the communities it serves first.”

Tasty Restaurant Group’s portfolio also includes 63 Burger King restaurants in ten states across the US.

In August, Tasty Restaurant Group signed a definitive agreement to acquire five Burger King restaurants in the US state of Iowa.
