Americana is a group of companies based in the Middle East, marketing consumer foods, restaurants, and food-related products. It began in Kuwait in 1964 with the establishment of a small trading company, which then opened its first restaurant (Wimpy) in 1970. This was the region's first experience with international chain restaurants and was the beginning of Americana's rapid expansion in this field. There followed the establishment of the first meat-processing plant in 1972 to cater for the restaurants' growing demand. With time, more Americana restaurants, food companies, factories, and brands were established. Today the Americana Group operates more than 1,000 restaurants with more than 35,000 employees across 17 countries between the Atlantic Ocean and the Caspian Sea. The Americana Group operates international franchises like Hardees, TGIFs, Krispy Kreme, KFC and Pizza Hut.
