Because Yum is not familiar with the hot pot business, the taste and service level of Little Sheep's dishes are not suitable for China consumers after the new team changes, and finally the store performance declines.

Huang Jing said that the store was poorly run, franchisees had their own ideas, and it was difficult to fully implement the policies of the headquarters in the store, which eventually led to a decline in word of mouth. At this time, a number of hot pot restaurants represented by Haidilao have sprung up, and the performance of Little Sheep's stores is getting worse and worse. Finally, Zhang Gang had no choice but to introduce the investment of Yum!, the parent company of KFC. Brand, Little Sheep was wholly-owned by Yum! Brand.
