KFC, founded and also known as Kentucky Fried Chicken, is a chain offast food restaurantsbased in Louisville, Kentucky, United States. KFC has been a brand and operating segment,
termed a conceptofYum! Brands since 1997 when that company was spun off from PepsiCo as
Tricon Global Restaurants Inc.
KFC primarily sells chicken pieces, wraps, salads and sandwiches. While its primary focus is
fried chicken, KFC also offers a line of grilled and roasted chicken products, side dishes and
desserts. Outside the USA, KFC offers beef based products such as hamburgers or kebabs,
poutine, pork based products such as ribs and other regional fare.
The reason they changes from Kentucky fried chicken to KFC was that people got conscious
when read the word FRIED which gave them an impression that its not healthy because it
contain fat, so Kentucky fried chicken had to changed their trade name from KENTUCKY fried
chicken to KFC. JUST TO avoids the fatty impression.
