In 1931, Harland Sanders, the founder of KFC, opened a restaurant in his hometown of KFC. During this period, Sandoz devoted himself to studying the new method of fried chicken, and finally succeeded in inventing a secret recipe composed of eleven spices and unique cooking techniques. Its unique taste was well received by customers, and the restaurant business was booming day by day, and the secret recipe has been inherited to this day.

In recognition of his contribution to his hometown, KFC awarded him the honorary title of Colonel Sanders. Colonel Sanders, dressed in a suit, with white hair and a goatee, has become the best symbol of KFC's international brand.

Extended information:

Colonel Sanders created KFC fried chicken and its business model on his own, and since then, life has embarked on a smooth road without any setbacks. But by this time, he was too old to manage the company and cook fried chicken in the kitchen.

So he stamped his foot with a cruel heart and sold the company to investors john brown and Jack Messi. Since then, the property rights of KFC have changed hands several times, but it has nothing to do with Colonel Sanders.

Although Colonel Sanders has left KFC, KFC has hired him as the company's image spokesperson. The smiling image of Colonel Sanders, a white-haired old man, began to appear in the company's propaganda, in restaurants and on TV. Seeing this lovely old man, people seem to have seen KFC, and they would never have thought that KFC now has nothing to do with this old man.
