Pret A Manger eyes China growth

British fast food chain Pret A Manger has put mainland China on its expansion map.

The sandwich maker will debut in mainland China with an outlet in Shanghai’s K11 shopping mall later this year, complementing its Hong Kong outlets.

“Building on our success in Hong Kong, we want to offer something different to the Chinese market and bring more British sandwiches, salads and organic coffee to a new audience,” said the company’s spokesperson.

The chain plans to open 40 new shops this year across the globe.
