Jollibee Foods Corporation (JFC) is advancing its strategy to list its international business in Hong Kong, a significant step for the Filipino fast-food leader.

On September 1, 2026, JFC announced plans to list Jollibee Foods Corporation International (JFCI) on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange (HKEX), separating its overseas operations from its Philippine business.

Strategic Market Choice

The decision to target Hong Kong comes after JFC evaluated potential markets that align with JFCI's geographical reach and business objectives.

The HKEX will provide JFCI access to a diverse pool of global and regional investors.

Hong Kong's financial hub is seen as a natural fit for JFCI, which aims to bolster its presence in Asia while supporting growth in North America.

  • JFC will distribute JFCI shares to current JFC shareholders based on their existing interests.
  • The transaction is subject to market conditions and necessary approvals from HKEX.

JFC will retain its listing on the Philippine Stock Exchange and maintain its local operations.

While the final terms and timing of the listing remain uncertain, this initiative marks a significant shift in Jollibee's operational strategy.
