The plan unveiled on Jan 5 envisages retaining the Manila listing of its Philippine business. The international business accounted for 6,800 of Jollibee's 10,300 stores by the end of last year's third quarter, he told reporters. Shin said the spin-off would simplify the group's structure and improve transparency, allowing investors to assess the domestic and international businesses on a standalone basis.

Jollibee operates across 33 countries with brands such as Jollibee, Chowking, Smashburger and Tim Ho Wan.
