It’s all happening, and Kentucky Fried Chicken will be opening soon. There has been much uproar around this, but the bottom line is that they probably will be well supported. Their food is well-priced, and for many people, that is the bottom line on food purchase decision-making.
Do you know much about the history of Kentucky Fried Chicken and Colonel Sanders?
Colonel Harland Sanders was a prominent figure known for contributing to the fast-food industry, particularly as the man who started Kentucky Fried Chicken. At the age of 40, he operated a successful service station in Kentucky, where his reputation for serving delicious fried chicken earned him the honorary title of Kentucky colonel from the state’s governor. Before his culinary success, Sanders held various occupations, including farmer, streetcar conductor, and insurance salesman, demonstrating his versatility and determination.
Sanders embarked on franchising his fried chicken business, establishing KFC outlets across the United States. His entrepreneurial endeavours proved fruitful, with each franchised restaurant contributing to his financial success through a payment structure based on chicken sales. In 1964, Sanders sold his interest in the company for a very nice $2 million, marking a significant milestone in his career.
Despite stepping away from direct involvement in KFC, Sanders remained closely associated with the brand as an ambassador, continuing to promote its products and values. Kentucky Fried Chicken underwent several ownership changes and was eventually publicly listed on the New York Stock Exchange. Sanders’s influence endured through KFC’s global expansion and corporate evolution.
Colonel Harland Sanders passed away on December 16, 1980, at the age of 90, leaving behind a lasting legacy in the fast-food industry. His innovative approach to fried chicken and dedication to quality paved the way for KFC’s enduring success. KFC kills around 850 million chickens annually, leaving us with Streetwise 4’s, double crunch burgers, nugs, snack boxes, wings, desserts and spicy brekkie crunch wraps.
