Potato Corner, the Philippines-based flavoured fries chain, has become a familiar sight in shopping centres from Manila to London and Taipei. The brand's rapid international growth has turned it into one of the country's most recognisable food exports, with more than 2,300 outlets worldwide.
However, its expansion has come under scrutiny after online allegations raised questions about how the company treats franchise partners. Posts on social media and discussion forums have claimed that prospective and existing franchisees were sidelined as the company pursued company-owned outlets in high-value locations.
