<P> In New Zealand, the fast food market began in the 1970s with KFC (opened 1971), Pizza Hut (1974), and McDonald's (1976), and all three remain popular today . Burger King and Domino's entered the market later in the 1990s . Australian pizza chains Eagle Boys and Pizza Haven also entered the market in the 1990s, but their New Zealand operations were later sold to Pizza Hut and Domino's . </P> <P> A few fast food chains have been founded in New Zealand, including Burger Fuel (founded 1995), Georgie Pie (founded 1977, but closed 1998 after falling into financial trouble and being bought out by McDonald's) and Hell Pizza (founded 1996). </P> <P> In the Philippines, fast - food is the same as in the US . However, the only difference is that they serve Filipino dishes and a few American products being served Filipino - style . Jollibee is the leading fast food chain in the country with 1,000 stores nationwide . </P> <P> A fast food chain restaurant is generally owned either by the parent company of the fast food chain or a franchisee--an independent party given the right to use the company's trademark and trade name . In the latter case, a contract is made between the franchisee and the parent company, typically requiring the franchisee to pay an initial, fixed fee in addition to a continual percentage of monthly sales . Upon opening for business, the franchisee oversees the day - to - day operations of the restaurant and acts as a manager of the store . Once the contract expires, the parent company may choose to "renew the contract, sell the franchise to another franchisee, or operate the restaurant itself ." In most fast food chains, the number of franchised locations exceeds the number of company owned locations . </P>
