Box 007, UST, Port Harcourt, Rivers State, Nigeria Tel: 234-805-665-9371 E-mail: [email protected] Folorunsho Awoseila Lecturer, Department of Marketing Rufus Giwa Polytechnic, Owo, Ondo State, Nigeria Abstract Business generation has taking a new dimension in the developing Nations considering the inflow of Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) through the process of Franchising. This study therefore examines the place of Franchising in the developing economy with emphasis centered on the Nigerian fast food sector. The study was conducted in different parts of Nigeria with the use of research questionnaire and observation to gather relevant data that was statistically analyzed. Franchising was generally accepted in Nigeria and yielded good profits for the local operators. Thus, franchising in the Nigerian fast food sector is a booming business that is meeting the need of Nigerians in terms of job creation and revenue generation. In view of this, we recommended that the government should strengthen the Nifa and NOTAP toward effective and efficient regulations and that more foreign fast food should take advantage of the Nigeria marketing environment to boost competition. Keywords: Franchising, FDI, Local market, Fast food, Business, Environment 1. Introduction Global competition is intensifying because, domestic companies that dominated the local market at home now find foreign competitors to contend with based on their influx through franchise as a distribution strategy in other to gain entry into new markets.

  • Fast Foods Consumption and Well-Being Degeneration in Humans
    Research Journal of Food Science and Quality Control Vol. 3 No. 2 2017 ISSN 2504-6145 www.iiardpub.org Fast Foods Consumption and Well-Being Degeneration in Humans Olonilebi, Joshua Olaolu (PGDE) Department of Biology, Federal College of Education, Okene, Kogi State, Nigeria. [email protected] Abstract Amidst the current global crisis, one line of business in Nigeria that continues to promise greater returns on investment is the Quick Service Restaurant. Despite the presence of economic, social and political dilemma in the country, the business continues to thrive. Fast-food eating is a dietary pattern that used to be foreign but has gradually become a part of the lifestyle of people in Nigeria especially those in urban areas. Judging from the uncontrollable rate and manner at which fast food restaurants are opening almost every day in every nook and cranny of the country, the consumption of these foods may continue to increase. An examination of the factors involved in weight gain and obesity in the developed countries is crucial for prediction about the future of countries in early stages of frequently dramatic socio- economic changes like Nigeria. This paper therefore examined the increase in the trend of consumption of fast food, the factors that lead to the increase and the effect it could have on the people. While calling for health education intervention on educating the people on how to reduce the amount of fat in the foods they consumed so that the nation would not have to start battling with health problems relating to diet like it is happening in some advanced countries.

  • Consumer Trends in Nigeria's Quick Service Restaurants Industry
    ciuci CONSULTING ARTICLE Consumer Trends in Nigeria’s Quick Service Restaurants Industry Overview of the Quick Service Restaurants Industry in Nigeria ciuci CONSULTING Consumer Trends in Nigeria’s Quick Service Restaurants Industry — Overview of the Quick Service Restaurants Industry in Nigeria efore the emergence of Quick Service Restaurants (QSR) also known as Fast Food Restaurants in Nigeria, small food shops or canteens were the common source of Bready to eat food. These food outlets were strategically positioned at street corners and market squares, usually selling a variety of staple food items such as rice, pounded- yam, beans, bread, fried-yam, roasted corn, along with drinks ranging from soft drinks to alcoholic beverages. However, with increased urbanisation and rising levels of disposable income, consumers gradually became more sophisticated, demanding services with higher levels of quality, greater convenience and better ambience. This trend gave rise to the emergence of quick service restaurants. Nigeria’s fast food industry experienced rapid development between 1970 and 1980 with companies such as Kingsway, Leventis and Kas Chicken leading the market. Today, the demand for ready to eat food as well as the number of fast food restaurants has increased significantly due to the lifestyle of many Nigerians that may not always allow for the luxury of home cooked meals. Tastee Fried Chicken, Tantalizers, Chicken Republic, Mr Biggs, Sweet Sensation, Mama Cass among others are now major players in the industry. Global brands such as Kentucky Fried Chicken (KFC) and Dominos have since made an inroad into the market. Nigeria’s organised fast food industry is currently estimated at N250 billion according to the Association of Fast Food Confectioners of Nigeria (AFFCON) and has grown at an annual rate of 10% over the years.
