Chicken Licken: The History Of The Largest non-American-owned Fried Chicken Franchise

Chicken Licken is a South African fast-food fried chicken restaurant chain. The company had a 5% share of South Africa's fast food market in 2010, tying with McDonald's. According to a case study published by the Henny Penny Corporation in 2011, Chicken Licken is the "largest non-American-owned fried chicken franchise in the world".

    The first Chicken Licken outlet was born in Zola Soweto before becoming a giant and giving birth to franchises. Sadly I heard of the passing of it's first chef on Wednesday, still to be buried. May your soul RIP (sisi) Sdudla Thusi

    What a great video! Thank you so much for this very new information. The largest non-American fast food chain in the world. No wonder South African entrepreneurs are respected all over the world.

    I could add a great deal to the historical information of Chicken Licken's origins. George was a manager and not shy of being a waiter himself on the forecourt of the Dairy Den roadhouse in Ridgeway. There was a Dairy Den in Vereeniging too. Their signature offerings were their toasted chicken & mayonnaise & enormous soft serve ice cream with peanut and chocolate sprinkles. George was amazingly humble and hard working throughout. The toasted chicken & mayonnaise (chickwich ) was taken off the menu some years back - disaster for me, but has thankfully returned. Great brand & continuing to expand - well deserved.
