KFC

ABOUT US

Finger Lickin’ Good moments are those times when friends and family are brought together by the delicious taste of KFC’s Original Recipe Chicken. The times when you hit the drive-through after a night out with friends. That time when you ate straight out of the Bucket on your family picnic, or that date when you got two straws for one Krusher.

Those are the moments worth recording.

KFC is world famous for its Original Recipe® fried chicken: made with the same secret blend of 11 herbs and spices Colonel Harland Sanders perfected more than a half-century ago.

As of 2013, there are 736 KFC outlets in South Africa, and the company dominates the fast food market.10 percent of outlets are company owned, and 90 percent are franchise owned.

All of the chicken sold is reared in South Africa.

Every day, more than 12 million customers are served at KFC restaurants in 109 countries and territories around the world. In South Africa, KFC has been serving delicious meals since 1971 and we’ve since grown to over 800 restaurants nationwide.

In addition to becoming a South African icon, KFC created meals specifically for South Africa like Streetwise with Pap, the Crunch Wrap and Dunked Wings.

South Africa is one of the few countries where KFC does not sell PepsiCo owned soft drinks, due to the company's historically small presence in the country.
