KFC launches web page amidst chicken chaos

With supply chain problems meaning some KFC outlets will remain closed for the rest of the week, the company has set up a web page where "fans" can find their nearest restaurant that is still open.

Last week, the chain switched its chicken delivery contract to DHL. “We’ve brought a new delivery partner onboard, but they’ve had a couple of teething problems – getting fresh chicken out to 900 restaurants across the country is pretty complex!” a note on the page says. “We won’t compromise on quality, so no deliveries has meant some of our restaurants are closed, and others are operating a limited menu, or shortened hours.”

It adds: “We know that this might have inconvenienced some of you over the last few days, and disappointed you when you wanted your fried chicken fix - we’re really sorry about that. Shout out to our restaurant teams who are working flat out to get us back up and running again. Hope to see you in our restaurants soon.”
