South Korea's fried chicken chain Kyochon F&B announced on Thursday that it opened its third Kyochon Chicken store in Taiwan at the end of last year.

Kyochon Chicken has entered in Taiwan restaurant industry since August last year.

The third Kyochon store in Taiwan is located in the food court on the basement second floor of Shin Kong Mitsukoshi Taipei.

The Xinyi area, where the store is situated, is one of the busiest commercial districts in Taiwan popular among the younger population due to the concentration of shopping malls, cinemas, and more.

At this location, Kyochon offers its signature chicken, combo menus, localized items, and Moonbear Brewing beer.

Since the return of Chairman Kwon Won-kang at the end of 2022, Kyochon Chicken has revealed its overseas expansion plans, highlighting the globalization of Korean-style fried chicken with its distinctive sauces.

Currently, Kyochon Chicken operates 71 stores overseas in countries such as Malaysia, Indonesia, Thailand, the US, China, and the United Arab Emirates (UAE).
