Just for some help!, who are Simbisa Brands Competitors, if any exist can they pull it off like them or Simbisa is now too big to chase ? Also I didn't know Simbisa makes so much half year profits, they would be adequate to Capitalise and register a commercial bank in Zimbabwe... I think the minimum Capital outlay you need would be like $20 million, the extra $4 million would be adequate for fees, professional labour etc... Midnight thinking 🤔

Their biggest competitor is probably KFC in terms of fast food but they are still much smaller.

There really isn't anyone as big as them in the fast food business a lot of smaller chains like Chicken Slice but nothing that comes close.

I think for other players the issue isn't to compete with Simbisa. Simbisa is in a playing field of its own. Other players would do well to cultivate strategies for the playing field they are in. Identify what it is their customer base appreciates about their products and deliver quality every time. Without that, they risk running themselves out of business.

That's a good point. I think there is still lot's of space to come in.

I think to do it on the same scale is hard but sometimes smaller and more profitable is better than larger with losses.
