FOOD
We're obsessed with the bucketloads of good within each piece of our irresistible fried chicken. KFC makes sure its preparation, presentation, and taste meet the same impeccably high standards, regardless of where you visit one of our restaurants.
That's why we use the highest quality whole muscle chickens that comply with local animal rights legislation, and why our food is always freshly prepared by our amazing team members in our kitchens.
At KFC, we believe in being transparent and providing our customers with enough information to enable them to make informed choices. We also believe it's important to lead an active lifestyle and follow a balanced diet. This includes noting the energy content and allergens in our food.

SOURCING & PROVENANCE
LOCAL IS LEKKER, THAT'S WHAT KFC BELIEVES.
The majority of KFC's finger lickin' good chicken is sourced right here in South Africa. It's the same with the other fresh produce we use, like coleslaw, tomatoes and our delicious fries. All of our suppliers are Halaal certified.
KFC believes this because we recognise our responsibility to support the communities in which we operate. It's one of the ways KFC helps improve people's lives, develop suppliers and enterprises, increase employment, and drive transformation.
CHICKEN WELFARE
DONE THE RIGHT WAY
At KFC South Africa, we are unwavering in our goal to provide delicious meals that are 100% real chicken, freshly prepared in our restaurants and sourced from suppliers who ensure that chickens are cared for and healthy throughout their lives.
Humane animal care is fundamental to food quality, supply chain resilience, and long-term sustainability across KFC. The overwhelming majority of our chicken is locally sourced, and we collaborate with suppliers who have animal welfare at the heart of their operations. As we move forward on this journey, we are committed to seeking new ways to raise our welfare standards and support industry-leading practices – ensuring measurable progress every step of the way.
FREEDOM FROM DISCOMFORT
All birds are housed in an appropriate environment that includes shelter and a comfortable resting area.
FREEDOM TO EXPRESS NORMAL BEHAVIOUR
The animals we source are raised with sufficient space, proper facilities and the company of their own kind.
FREEDOM FROM FEAR AND DISTRESS
Our suppliers help ensure conditions and treatment that prevent stress in animals.
FREEDOM FROM HUNGER OR THIRST
Our suppliers help ensure that all poultry have been raised with ready access to fresh water and a well-balanced diet.
FREEDOM FROM PAIN, INJURY OR DISEASE
KFC requires that all suppliers and their partners are committed to disease prevention in all animals, as well as rapid diagnosis and treatment of any health issues that arise.
