KFC & Pizza Hut Grand Opening

Client KFC & Pizza Hut Tanzania
Year 2023
Location Himo, Kilimanjaro

Bringing Two Iconic Brands to Himo Plaza

LAS Consultancy was tasked with orchestrating the grand opening of the first combined KFC & Pizza Hut outlet at Himo Plaza — a milestone expansion for two of the world's most recognised quick-service restaurant brands in Tanzania.

The event needed to generate significant media buzz, engage the local community, and create a sense of occasion that would establish the new location as a must-visit destination. We developed a full-scale launch programme encompassing a VIP press conference, ribbon-cutting ceremony, and a spectacular confetti celebration that captured the excitement of the moment.

From coordinating executive speeches and panel discussions to managing media logistics and post-event coverage, every element was designed to maximise visibility and position the brands for success in this new market.
