Lovers of the Colonel's original recipe in the UK can look forward to KFC slowing reopening, following a shortage in the key ingredient that closed hundreds of its restaurants. With chicken back in supply, the fast-food chain says over 600 of its outlets in Britain were reopen by Wednesday mid-afternoon.
Some outlets will remain closed, while others may operate with a reduced menu or shortened hours to cater for the peckish. The crisis erupted over the weekend when KFC switched its delivery contract to D-H-L from South African-owned supplier Bidvest.
