The Company Profile of PT Sarimelati Kencana Tbk

PT Sarimelati Kencana Tbk is the franchisee of Pizza Hut brand in Indonesia

PT Sarimelati Kencana Tbk (PZZA) is a subsidiary of PT Sriboga Raturaya. The company was established in 1987 and has been engaged in the consumer foodservice industry. It is the franchisee of YUM International, the brand owner of Pizza Hut.

As Pizza Hut’s main franchisee in Indonesia, the company has the right to develop and operate all Pizza Hut restaurants in the country. After developing the Pizza Hut brand in Indonesia for two decades, the company was acquired by PT Sriboga Raturaya in 2004. Since the acquisition, Pizza Hut outlets have grown rapidly to 100 outlets throughout Indonesia a year later.

In Indonesia, there are two different Pizza Hut concepts, the Pizza Hut Restaurants (PHR) and Pizza Hut Delivery (PHD). Along with this concept, the company provided 3 sales channels: dine-in service, delivery service, and online sales with an extensive network. It believes that its current sales concepts and channels will provide flexibility for sustainable growth.

In providing the best service, the company gives full attention to Indonesian consumers. It continues to innovate in its menu selection by adapting the menu to suit the tastes of the Indonesian people. One of the company's efforts to meet the tastes of Indonesian consumers is to offer a choice of rice menus, considering that rice is the staple food for Indonesians.

Still with the theme of providing the best service for its consumers in Indonesia, the company has successfully obtained halal certification from the Indonesian Ulema Council (Indonesian: Majelis Ulama Indonesia, MUI) for Pizza Hut Indonesia in 1997. This was successfully done by the company without spoiling the authentic taste of each Pizza Hut dish.

In 35 years, PT Sarimelati Kencana Tbk has operated 600 Pizza Hut outlets in Indonesia. The company has achieved many milestones, such as expansion into delivery services and introducing Pizza Hut Delivery (PHD) in 2007. Another proud moment occurred in 2018 when the company succeeded in conducting an Initial Public Offering on the Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX) with PZZA stock code.
