No matter how many chicken joints come and go, KFC has leached into the hearts of people from all over the world and is almost impossible to get bested.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

KFC or Kentucky Fried Chicken is one of the largest QSR (quick service restaurant) chains in the world. The fondness of their popular fried chicken has grown into the hearts of the people so much that its demand doesn’t seem to decrease in the foreseeable future.<\/span><\/p>\n

The mystery of the 11 herbs and spices used in the recipe is one of the reasons why KFC has still not come across a viable competitor.<\/span><\/p>\n

Many sharp-witted entrepreneurs have made the correct decision to invest in a KFC franchise, and now is your time to take that astute step!<\/span><\/p>\n

KFC recorded a whopping valuation of $5.43 Bn in 2011 which later grew to a whopping sum of $6.09 Bn in the next year, 2012.<\/span><\/p>\n

Beginning of KFC<\/b><\/span><\/h3>\n

KFC is a star set on a pile of failures. Established in September of 1952, KFC was founded by Colonel Sanders who undoubtedly carried through a variety of hurdles.<\/span><\/p>\n

Colonel Sanders lost his father at a very young age and being the man of the house, he had to abandon his studies and work as a farmhand to feed his family which helped him turn into a tough young man.<\/span><\/p>\n

He tried his luck in a variety of other fields including, a streetcar conductor, insurance seller, railroad firemen, steamboat operator, tire seller, lawyer etc. But none of them worked in his favour.<\/span><\/p>\n

After coming such a long way, Colonel Sanders finally hit the jackpot in 1930 when he got a job to operate a gas station in Corbin, Kentucky. For some extra bucks, he prepared a few dishes including fried chicken and offered them to his customers.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Word circulated about his highly appetising fried chicken and people from all over started coming over. The popularity experienced a great rise and he eventually removed the gas pumps and converted the gas station into a fully developed restaurant.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

In 1936, Colonel Sanders was bestowed upon with the title of Kentucky Colonel by the Governor of Kentucky.<\/span><\/p>\n

A year later, Colonel Sanders grew his empire further, by the establishment of a motel, a cafe, Sanders cafe and courts that could serve a great number of 142 consumers.<\/span><\/p>\n

After extensive experimenting, he finally came up with his famous fried chicken recipe in 1938 which included 11 herbs and spices. But to our misfortune, the much loved, fried chicken\u2019s recipe is a secret to this day.<\/span><\/p>\n

KFC Outlets<\/b><\/span><\/h3>\n

The first KFC franchise was established in 1952 in the United States whereas the first overseas KFC franchise was established in the United Kingdoms in 1965.<\/span><\/p>\n

Colonel Harland Sanders passed away from pneumonia at the age of 90 years. During that period, there were around 6,000 KFC outlets in 48 countries. And by 2013, there were an estimated 18,000 KFC outlets in 118 countries.<\/span><\/p>\n

As of 2022, there are an estimated sum of 25,000 KFC outlets in 147 territories and countries all around the globe.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
