American fast food chains expand presence in Poland

Major American fast food brands are significantly expanding their footprint in the Polish market. Popeyes has announced plans to open a second location within the Galeria Krakowska shopping mall in Krakow. This new outlet, which will be situated on the food court, follows the brand's initial opening in the same mall in December 2025. Popeyes aims to exceed 50 restaurants in Poland by the end of 2026.

Simultaneously, Taco Bell is returning to Poland after a 33-year absence. AmRest, the company responsible for the brand's development in the country, has confirmed that the first Taco Bell restaurant will open in the Galeria Młociny shopping center in Warsaw. The expansion is part of a broader strategy to reach more consumers across the country before the end of 2026.
