KFC in South Africa - wikipedia KFC in South Africa KFC is the largest fast food chain in South Africa. Contents 1 Operations 2 History 3 References 4 External links Operations As of 2016, there are 828 KFC outlets in South Africa, and the company dominates the fast food market. 10 percent of outlets are company owned, and 90 percent are franchise owned. Outlets sell the regional pap dish. South Africa is one of the few countries where KFC does not sell PepsiCo owned soft drinks, due to the company 's historically small presence in the country. All of the chicken sold is reared in South Africa. History KFC first entered the South African market in 1971. The company was forced to divest its 60 company owned outlets and trademarks to a South African holding company called Devco in 1987 after the US Congress passed a law forbidding American companies from owning South African assets. The company 's 120 franchised outlets were not affected. KFC continued to collect an administrative fee from Devco. The company reacquired its former assets when sanctions were lifted in 1994. By 1994 there were around 300 KFC outlets in the country.
