About KFC
In 1952, Colonel Harland Sanders opened the first KFC restaurant in Utah. Since then, his perfectly crafted Original Recipe chicken and its secret recipe of 11 herbs and spices has become famous all over the world, and today KFC has over 900 restaurants across the UK and Ireland.
The Colonel was all about doing things the right way. That means KFC chicken is delivered fresh from farm to restaurant in 48 hours. It’s prepared carefully by hand in-restaurant by trained cooks, using the very best chicken reared to strict welfare standards. In July 2019 KFC took the next big step in its welfare journey and signed up to the Better Chicken Commitment, a set of six criteria that have been designed to improve the lives of all chickens within the KFC supply chain, by 2026. That’s what makes their food so finger lickin’ good.
The Colonel also believed in feeding promise, wherever it’s found. So that’s why KFC invests heavily in the development and careers of its 27,000 employees — it was the first restaurant to launch an honours degree. And since its 2015 launch, our KFC Foundation has paid out grants totalling £5 million to our charity partners who are passionate about developing and nurturing young people across the country.
