INTRODUCTION
▪ KFC is the world’s No.1 Chicken
QSR.
• Leading in UK, Australia, South Africa, China,
USA, Malaysia and many more.
• Introduced many offerings for its growing
customer base in India while staying rooted in
the taste legacy of Colonel Harland
• Sander’s secret recipe.
• Products are made on the motto
of“Crispy outside, juicy inside” .
• In India, KFC is growing rapidly
and today has presence in 21

4
HISTORICAL BACKGROUND
• In 1930’s Colonel Harland Sanders some
distinguished Kentucky folks licking’ their
fingers.
• Founder of the original Kentucky Fried Chicken,
was born on September 9, 1890.
• By 1964, Colonel had 600 franchise outlets for
his chicken across the United States and
Canada.
• KFC now stretches worldwide with more than
13,000 restaurants in more than 80 countries
and territories

5
PROBLEM FACED
• Why doesn't KFC use healthier oil?: the oil
does have dangerous trans-fatty acids.

• Is KFC's food really that unhealthy?:


a three-piece extracrispy combo meal
contains as much as 15 g of Trans fatmore
than a person should ingest in a week.

• What are other chains doing?: the


Cheesecake Factory is doing so already,
McDonald's backpedaled on a promise to cut
Trans fats and says it's studying alternative
oils, as is Burger King.

• What's so bad about trans fat?


6
Problem faced in INDIA
• KFC entered India in 1995,

• The regulatory authorities found that


KFC's chickens did not adhere to the
Prevention of Food Adulteration Act, 1954

• KFC faced severe protests by People for


Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA), an
animal rights protection organization.

• PETA accused KFC of cruelty towards


chickens and released a video tape
showing the ill-treatment of birds in KFC's
poultry farms
7
Re-Entry of KFC
• The company had to shut all but one
outlet in the country.

• Recently in 2003 it made a quiet re-entry


into the Indian market.

• Came up with the strategies and menu that


is desirable by the Indian consumers.

• Mission statement
“To be the leader in western style quick
service restaurants through friendly service,
good qualit food and clean atmosphere ”

8
GOALS OF KFC
• Build an organization dedicated to
excellence.

• Deliver superior quality and value in


our products and services.

• Maintain a commitment to innovation

• Generate consistently superior


financial returns and benefits our
owner and employees.

• Establish in India our position as leading


WQSR (Western Quick Service Restaurant)
chain, serving good value.
9
STRENGHTS
• KFC's secret recipe: the "secret recipe" was the initial home
replacement strategy.

• Name recognition and reputation: the KFC logo was the only one
which significantly enhance the brand's image

• Conflicting cultures of KFC and Pepsi Co.

• Turnover in top management.

• Recent contractual disputes with franchisees in the United States.

10
OPPORTUNITIES
• New Markets: Globalisation has opened
doors for new markets for the company

• Cross Culture: Generally there is a good


acceptance of American culture of fast
food in India

• Large Youth population: India has a very


large share of youth population a
compared to other countries.

• New variety: Company can also come


up with new variety in the menu
likePizzas, garlic breads to attract more
customers
11
THREATS
• Competition: Competitor
companies like McDonalds are
fast catching up with the market.

• Organizations like PETA People


for Ethnic Treatment for Animals
have given a bad name to the
company

• Saturated US Market: Now KFC


cannot rely on just its home
market to generate sales. As the
US markets are already saturated
and leave no or little scope for
growth,
12
PROBLEMS
• No defined target market.

• Saturation of the U.S.


Market.

• Health Conscious Consumers.

• Increased Start Up Costs.

13

ASEAN region delivering consistent quality
products and excellent customer focused

value and deliver sustainable growth year after

a doctorate in physics. Doctor's Associates is not affiliated with, nor endorsed by,
any medical organization. In 1968, the sandwich shop was renamed "Subway".
