This document discusses Pizza Hut's expansion into Russia in the 1990s. It opened its first two locations in Moscow through a joint venture with PepsiCo. However, Pizza Hut struggled to comply with Russia's different rules and regulations. A local sanitary inspector shut down one location for not having proper documentation. With help from PepsiCo's president, Pizza Hut was able to negotiate and get that location re-opened. The document also notes Russians preferred American foods over local cuisine, so Pizza Hut adapted its menu to focus more on US-style foods.

The Reasons were that pizza hut started in 1958 and

PepsiCo who took the matter in his hand and solve the
matter at argent basis.
