Success Story
Southern Fried Chicken in Malta.
Keith and Marlene Psaila have been great examples of taking on board the ethos of Southern Fried Chicken by using a small investment in a small densely populated market, to generate big profits over a short time scale.
They began their journey in 2010 and since then have grown steadily opening 9 locations. They have taken hold of their business by identifying the need for local distribution, which has come in the form of their own importation business which feeds their numerous locations within the highly populated market. As a result of the growth they have experienced, they have taken on an area manager who assists with the day-to-day operations overseeing over fifty staff members. Keith is now actively seeking a newly planned 10th location which he has ambitions to open.
