LOUISVILLE, Ky. — Pizza Hut has been named the most trusted food brand in India in The Economic Times' (India) Most Trusted Brands survey.

 

"Yum is investing significant amounts in India to make our brands available to Indian consumers," Graham Allan, president, Yum! Restaurants International, said in a news release. "At the same time, we are striving to become part of everyday life in India by positioning Pizza Hut as an international brand with an Indian heart. The enthusiasm for Pizza Hut shown by consumers across all parts of the country encourages us to believe that we can be highly successful in this rapidly growing market."
