KFC was established by The Colonel, Harland Sanders. The now international fried chicken restaurant started in Kentucky when the Colonel ran service stations. The first KFC was established in 1930 when Colonel Sanders was 40 years old, and he bought a roadside motel where the chicken was served. In South Africa, it is one of the largest fast food chains.
