    About KFC US LLC

    His recipe is still a secret, but more than 2 billion of Colonel Harland Sanders' 'finger lickin' good' chicken dinners are served annually in more than 82 countries around the world. Nearly 50 years ago, Colonel Sanders set out to sell complete meals to time-strapped families, calling his home meal replacements 'Sunday Dinner, Seven Days a Week.' Acquired by PepsiCo in 1986, KFC is now a part of Yum! Brands Inc., which includes A&W, Long John Silver's, Taco Bell and Pizza Hut.

    The total investment necessary to begin operation of a newly constructed KFC outlet ranges from $1,442,600 to $2,771,550. This includes $45,000 to $50,000 that must be paid to KFCLLC or its affiliates.
    The total investment necessary to begin operation of a reopened or remodeled former KFC outlet, or converted KFC outlet ranges from $1,008,600 to $2,221,550. This includes $45,000 to $50,000 that must be paid to KFCLLC or its affiliates.
    KFCLLC also offers multi-unit development opportunities. The total investment necessary to begin exercising development rights is estimated to be $135,000 to $540,000 (based on the expectation that you will develop 3 to 12 outlets during the term of the development agreement), determined by multiplying the number of new outlets you agree to develop by $45,000, all of which must be paid to KFCLLC.
    The total investment necessary to begin operation of a KFC non-traditional outlet ranges from $241,100 to $996,000. This includes $12,100 to $17,100 that must be paid to the licensor or its affiliates.

    The Chickery began with a desire to collaborate our favorite chicken recipes. However, upon testing, revising, and formulating recipes, we found that were doing endless research to discover the best way to prep, cook, and grill our chicken. What we found through endless Google searches was that everyone has their own "best way” to prepare and cook various chicken dishes. When it came to grilling there were many recipes, grilling methods, and even grills that seemed to fall short. When we started out with this idea to create a site dedicated to chicken recipes we really had no idea what we were doing as it relates to the culinary of chicken, we just knew we loved to eat it.Today we understand so much more about what it takes to yield the perfect chicken strip, or how to smoke a delicious Thanksgiving turkey. This was our inspiration for the site you see today.
