Tenant Description

Back in 1930, the great Harland ‘Colonel’ Sanders originated KFC in a tiny section of a Corbin, KY gas station. Fast forward to 1952, and we can see he was well on his way to success, having started the first KFC franchise.

Decades later, PepsiCo would take over in the mid-80s. Then in 1997, PepsiCo branded KFC, along with Taco Bell and Pizza Hut under the Yum! Brands, Inc. Today, they have closed in on spot #200 in the Fortune 500 list, now pushing over 13 billion dollars in revenue per annum (statistic current as of 2012).

Counting 17,000 separate properties in the U.S. alone, with nearly 15,000 in over 120 countries internationally, Kentucky Fried Chicken (KFC) has become mammoth in annual sales revenues. KFC brought in over $16 billion per annum recently, growing their operational profits over the past three years with a 9% growth rate compounded.

With corporate operations based in Louisville, KY, the KFC brand continues to be famous for all things chicken. Everything from Crispy Kentucky Grilled Chicken®, fresh sandwiches, Hot Wings™ pieces, and Extra Crispy™ Tenders, to name a few.
