[A] The control of the mixture is so perfect that wherever you go in the world where KFC is sold, the end result is exactly the same, a very tasty piece of chicken. Many have tried to emulate it and all have failed, although some have got pretty close. Even the fries are second to none.
[B] Kentucky Fried Chicken is well known and loved around the world and it all began in 1952 when a 65-year-old gentleman, Colonel Sanders’, used his Social Security cheque of just $ 105 to start the KFC franchising business that we know today. The Colonel only got $ 2m for his business in 1964. But in 1986 PepsiCo Inc bought the KFC franchise for a reported $ 840m.
[C] But the Colonel, now in his mid sixties, knew that his recipe for Kentucky Fried Chicken was a winner so for the next twelve years Colonel Sanders travelled the country by car to restaurants to cook chicken in his special way and set up over 600 franchises in the United States and Canada. And the rest as they say is history. In all those years he and his wife Claudia would mix the special recipe on the garage floor from the recipe that he carried in his head. Today that recipe is locked away in a safe in Lousiville, Kentucky and only a handful of people know what that recipe is and they have signed a very strict confidentiality contract. The security would do justice to Fort Knox.
[D] Some 6 billion (American) chicken pieces are sold worldwide each year, that is 736 million chickens. The USA consumes nearly as much KFC as the rest of the world put together.
[E] In actual fact it really all began before then. As Harland Sanders was six years old, he had been old head cook and bottle washer in the Sanders household, where by the age of seven he had mastered many local dishes. Between then and his fortieth birthday Harland worked in at least a dozen different jobs and finally ran a service station in Corbin, Kentucky. It was here that he began to cater for the weary travellers by cooking them meals to be served on his own kitchen table in his own quarters. He and the establishment became famous for the tasty chicken pieces that were served. It took him nine years to perfect the now famous secret recipe and for his efforts he became a Kentucky Colonel. In 1935 in Kentucky, statesmen of note were afforded the rank of Colonel as recognition of their services to the state.
[F] The building of an interstate highway in the 1950’s would by-pass the town and that spelled the end of his business. After auctioning it off and paying his bills Harland was left with a Social Security cheque of just $ 105.
[G] Sadly the Colonel is no longer with us but when you see a picture of the bespectacled, goatee bearded, white haired, rotund figure of the Colonel, you cannot help but put your trust in his culinary skills and know that his meal made just for you, will be perfect.
