Yum! Brands Inc China, which operates KFC and Pizza Hut in China, on Tuesday published a white paper on its food safety policy, outlining its domestic suppliers' status and their efforts in safeguarding food security.

Sam Su, Yum! Brands Inc Global vice president said the company had full confidence in its Chinese suppliers. The paper said after years of continuous hard work, "the overall quality of Chinese food has improved steadily, together with the food safety status".

Yum! Brands has more than 500 suppliers in China, covering chicken, vegetables, bread and facilities, among others.

The statistics showed that chicken sold in all of its KFC and Pizza Huts, in addition to 90 percent of other foodstuffs, was provided by Chinese suppliers within the country.

"All the food ingredient suppliers in China can reach the standard set by the Yum!", said Su, adding the paper was a commitment to the Chinese society on the food safety issue.

Yum! was also willing to receive the supervision of the government, consumers and the media, said Su, also the president of the company's China operation.

The company has more than 35,000 chain restaurants in 110 countries, including 2,500 in China.
