Anna Sui designs exclusive uniforms for Pizza Hut Pizza Hut has partnered with renowned New York fashion designer Anna Sui to launch a line of autumn/winter store uniforms that have been designed exclusively for the casual dining brand. Inspired by Anna Sui's edgy, retro rock 'n roll style, the uniforms have been adopted across all stores in China. Fashion loving customers can also enjoy the Anna Sui x Pizza Hut uniform designs displayed in 15 themed stores across China in the coming months. Pizza Hut's new store design offers a fashionable dining experience The new Pizza Hut restaurant is designed to deliver a modern and fashionable dining experience. Featuring an open kitchen, dining room, bar, indoor garden, and family dens with tasteful lighting, the space is designed to feel like a Chef's home, where customers can enjoy the freshest ingredients and classic recipes. In line with Yum China's strategy to use in-store technology to improve the customer experience, Pizza Hut recently launched table-side ordering through mobile phones across the country, offering customers a convenient and connected in-restaurant experience while also improving operating efficiency. Pizza Hut launches Pioneer concept store to drive menu innovation Pizza Hut also opened a Pioneer store in Nanjing, China at the end of September, 2018. The Pioneer store will serve as a product testing site and will enable Pizza Hut to offer and test new menu innovations with customers directly. Taking into account evolving customer preferences, the Pioneer store menu will initially feature unique, never-before-seen dishes, such as Pizza Hut's square Italian pizzas and "dirty" dessert series, including original takes on brown sugar ice-cream, tiramisu, and café lattes. The store will function as a guide for new menu items to be launched at Pizza Hut restaurants across China. Pizza Hut intends to open more Pioneer stores in different parts of China to gain deeper insight into customers' ever evolving preferences. Smaller format Pizza Hut store opens in Nanjing A new, smaller store format was also recently opened in Nanjing with dine-in seating options as well as the capacity to cater to the growing demand for home delivery. While the new store is smaller than regular stores, the kitchen is designed to offer the full Pizza Hut menu. Delivery is expected to account for a significant portion of sales at the store which has a separate delivery room to facilitate a fast and efficient delivery process. This new store format is expected to be well matched to customer preferences in lower tier cities. SOURCE Yum China Holdings, Inc.
