Jollibee says planning to pick Hong Kong over US to list international unit
The planned spin-off would create two separately listed companies and give JFCI access to global and regional investors, the company said.
- On Tuesday, September 1, 2026, Jollibee Foods Corp announced plans to spin off and list its international unit, Jollibee Foods Corporation International , on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange, abandoning an earlier proposed U.S. listing.
- The move advances JFC's January plan to separate its international operations from its Philippine business, creating two independent companies with distinct strategic priorities and investment profiles.
- JFC selected Hong Kong for its deep capital pools and brand recognition across Asia, describing the city as a "natural market" for JFCI's expansion into North America.
- Jollibee appointed current chief financial and risk officer Richard Chong Woo Shin as CEO of JFCI, while existing JFC shareholders are expected to receive JFCI shares upon transaction completion.
- The proposed listing remains subject to regulatory approvals from the HKEX Listing Committee, with JFC cautioning that final terms and timing of the separation remain uncertain.
