Yum China Holdings, Inc. (the "Company" or "Yum China", NYSE: YUMC and HKEX: 9987) has reaffirmed its commitment to reducing food waste through the gradual expansion of its existing pilot Food Bank program to cover more stores and cities across China. The program works in cooperation with local authorities to distribute surplus food at stores to nearby residents in need.

Yum China has been working on reducing food waste by employing technology, such as AI and IoT, to improve sales forecasting accuracy and inventory management. As store traffic is affected by many variable factors such as the weather, stores may occasionally have food left unsold. In September 2020, KFC launched its pilot Food Bank program in Shenzhen to distribute surplus food for free to nearby residents in need. As of the end of 2021, the Food Bank program covers over 120 KFC restaurants in 27 cities.

YUM中国首席执行官Joey Wat说：“在百胜中国，我们不仅专注于我们的AI授权系统的积极管理，而且还采用创新的方法来帮助减少食物浪费。”“意识到减少食物浪费的积极影响需要协作和伙伴关系。我们将继续吸引我们的客户和其他利益相关者，以减轻食物浪费，而食物浪费又将受益于经济，环境和社会。”

The Food Bank program involves establishing food bank pick-up stations at participating stores to ensure that unsold food in the store that day is properly collected, packaged and frozen. Information such as the date of deposit and the consumption guidelines are clearly marked on each packaging bag.

The Food Bank program is designed to support China’s national campaign against food waste and contribute to the UN’s Sustainable Development Goal for responsible consumption and production. Meanwhile, Yum China actively supports China’s government-led “Empty Your Plate” campaign to eliminate food waste, with anti-food waste posters and slogans prominently displayed in stores.

Yum China strives to establish a responsible ecosystem by building sustainable restaurants, creating a sustainable supply chain with partners, and building sustainable communities with all stakeholders. In combination with several other waste reduction initiatives already implemented by Yum China, the Food Bank program is an important initiative for the Company to reduce food waste and contribute to building a responsible and sustainable society.
