The company was founded as Kentucky Fried Chicken by Colonel Harland Sanders in 1952, though the idea of KFC's fried chicken actually goes back to 1930. Although Sanders died in 1980, he remains an important part of the company's branding and advertisements, and "Colonel Sanders" or "The Colonel" is a metonym for the company itself. The company adopted KFC, an abbreviated form of its name, in 1991. Newer and remodeled restaurants will adopt the new logo and name, while older stores will continue to use the 1980s signage. Additionally, Yum! continues to use the abbreviated name freely in its advertising.

Unethics at KFC The People for Treatment of Animals (PETA), an animal right protection organization, accused KFC for its unethical treatment (behavior) towards the chicken inKFC’s supplier factory farms. Pilgrim’s Pride(PP)is one of KFC’saward-winning supply operations and the second largest processor of chickens in the United States. PETA’s investigations in Pilgrim’sPride poultry farm brought to light the inappropriate practices that prevailed in KFC’s supplier operations.PETA released a shocking video that clearly depicted thrill- treatment of chickens and the unhygienic behavior in the Pilgrim’s Pride poultry farm.Experts commented the video to have depicted the worst cruelty towards chicken and the worst employee behavior. The release of the video led to widespread protest against KFC around the world

Overcrowded Overcrowded farm environment• The chickens are stuffed by tens of

thousands into overcrowded sheds where they hardly find space to move freely. To saves pace and avoid chicken hurting each other, the sensitive chicken beaks are cut off with hot blade without giving any pain killers. Overcrowding and poor litter quality in the farms also caused painful ammonia burns on the chickens. The injured chickens received no treatment and had to bear the pain throughout their life.

Improper Breeding

Birds are fed genetically modified feed in order to accelerate their growth rate. As a result they suffer from ailments such as extreme obesity and fatty livers and kidneys, heart attacks and other problems.

Slaughter HouseThe chickens are slaughtered before they are 6 weeks old .At the slaughter house, chickens are hung upside down and transferred through conveyor belts to the killing room fully conscious. Too many chickens are dumped from the crates to the fast moving conveyor belt that caused the birds at the bottom to get suffocated. Unable to manage the large in flow of chickens, the workers threw away some chickens slamming them to the walls or floors. During the processing, to remove feathers, the live chickens are thrown into scalding-hot water

Unethical Treatment

Frustrated WorkersDue to poor wages and working conditions, employees used the chickens as a means to vent frustrations and alleviate boredom.They twisted the bird’s heads off, spat tobacco into their eyesand mouths, spray-painted their faces, used them as footballs and squeezed their bodies so hard that the birds expelled faces

GREENPEACE Perspective

Another unethical issue raised against KFC is its link with the destruction of the Amazon Rainforest. In May, 2006 Greenpeace volunteers came up to enlighten the whole world about the mass deforestation in Amazon rainforest caused by KFC.Greenpeace has come up with a term for KFC as “KFC – Amazon Criminal”. According to Greenpeace, KFC is fuelling the destruction of Amazon by selling cheap chicken fen on soya grown on deforested land. Green peace investigation clearly traced that large area of rain fourth as been destroyed by direct sales of cheap soya via Cargill by KFC , in order to sell billions of chickens to its customer every year, at low cost. The demand of soya fed for its chicken by KFC to Cargill has led to this unethical activity, which is affecting the global climate. Rainforest that covered 14% of earth’s land area has reduced to 6% due to deforestation, which clearly shows the high overall impact of business practices.
