KFC's are 95% franchised. Doesn't that mean that the franchisee's would have a claim for loss of earnings against the franchisers?
Maybe, though I would imagine KFC have some Contract conditions which allow them a get out.
Weird thing to happen though, can't recall any such similar story before.
DHL are not coming out of it with much credit, either.
Bit of a mess up, one way & another.
