Thus, according to the company, the process includes closing 13 Pizza Hut restaurants over a period of approximately 6 months, particularly units serving areas with a high degree of overlap resulting from the consolidation under one brand and the alignment of Pizza Hut and Pizza Hut Delivery operations.

The aim is to optimize costs, increase agility in the face of high competition, and improve customer experience, which will reflect in improved profitability indicators.

The Company aims for the process of efficiency increase to have as little impact as possible on employees, who will be relocated within the Sphera Group network, while customers will benefit from the same products and services in nearby Pizza Hut restaurants.
