According to Yum!, this is the ninth consecutive year that the company has opened more than 1,000 new restaurants outside the United States – something that Oliver believes is critically important to the future of Yum!
"When you look at Yum! from a global perspective, the key to our continued success and earnings and revenue growth is going to be that expansion," he told MeetTheBoss.tv during an interview at the recent Next Generation Retail Summit in California. "If you look at Yum! China going from 3,000 stores today to 5,000 and up to 10,000 stores,

Of course, opening seven new outlets in China in a week is nothing new to either KFC or Yum,

"There has to be a lot of ideas out there, right?" We shouldn't be reinventing the wheel every time we have a challenge come up before us," he said. "At the end of the day our business isn't that complex. We sell chicken, we make pizzas and we make tacos,

With more than 1 million Yum! employees around the world, Oliver is also conscious of tapping into the collective talents of the company's workforce.
Yum! China currently is gearing up to introduce new technologies to their 3,000-plus company stores and is in the process of selecting a US company from Boston to supply those technologies.
"So what you've got is Chinese business requirements being answered by an American company,

Yum! Brands - the US-based parent company of restaurant brands that include Pizza Hut, Kentucky Fried Chicken (KFC),
abercrombie and fitch, Taco Bell and Long John Silver's – is opening another seven KFC restaurants on the Chinese mainland, Dickie Oliver, vice president of VP Global Infrastructure for Yum! Brands, told Britain's MeetTheBoss.tv.
