SWOT Analysis Rating: Strengths(High), Weaknesses(Moderate), Opportunities(High),

Threats(Low).
Competitor Analysis: Devyani International’s major competitor is Jubilant Foodworks, with a

Market Cap of 35000 Cr. The median P/E for Industry is 120.47, with Devyani International at
113.89, which shows that it still has room for price appreciation. The Return on Capital
Employed(ROCE) for Devyani International is 18.43%, the highest among competitors such as
Jubilant Foodworks, Sapphire Foods, Westlife Food, etc. McDonald's is one of the largest
QSR chains globally, known for its iconic brand and extensive menu. It competes with
Devyani International's brands like KFC and Pizza Hut. In the coffee and cafe segment,
Starbucks is a significant competitor, competing with Devyani's Costa Coffee brand. Devyani
International also faces competition from local and regional QSR chains and restaurants in
each market it operates in.
Conclusion: Finally, Devyani International operates in a highly competitive food and
beverage business, focusing primarily on the quick-service restaurant (QSR) and casual
dining segments. The company has a strong brand portfolio, including globally recognised
names such as KFC, Pizza Hut, Costa Coffee, and Taco Bell, allowing it to appeal to a wide
range of client tastes. Furthermore, the company's global presence and franchise model
enable rapid growth and revenue diversification.
Devyani International, on the other hand, confronts significant obstacles. It relies heavily on
a few key brands, making it vulnerable to changes in consumer preferences and market
trends. Geographic concentration and fierce competition from global behemoths such as
McDonald's and Yum! Brands and local competition present extra challenges.
Devyani International should continue expanding into emerging regions and investigate
menu diversity to appeal to local tastes and capitalise on opportunities. Adopting digitisation
and sustainability efforts can help it gain a competitive advantage. Nonetheless, the
corporation must remain attentive amid economic downturns, shifting consumer tastes,
regulatory changes, and health-related concerns that may impact its operations.
Devyani International's success in this dynamic climate depends on its ability to react
quickly, innovate, and maintain the quality and consistency of its services while mitigating
risks and maximising its strengths in an ever-changing competitive landscape.
