KFC Bangladesh celebrates Colonel Sanders’ birthday

Colonel Harland Sanders is a name directly associated with fried chicken. His secret recipe of Kentucky Fried Chicken (KFC) still remains a secret. Col. Sander's 129th birthday was this year, on 9 September. And this birthday was celebrated by KFC Bangladesh with a weeklong bonanza. If anyone's birthday was between 9 and 15 September, they would get FREE meal from KFC, after bringing along some verification!

There was also a big celebration in KFC Gulshan on the day. 30 children from Gyaner Pathshala (an initiative for street children) came over to party with the colonel and team KFC. They came in, cut a cake (with the Colonel, the CEO of Transcom Foods Ltd., and the KFC team present there), had a hearty meal of KFC signature Hot & Crispy Chicken, fries etc. and had loads of fun.

"Colonel Sanders is an inspiration to all of us. He has lived and proved that if you have dreams and a passion to make it big, age is no bar. Just go get it, making the failures steps to your success," said Amit Dev Thapa, CEO of Transcom Foods Limited.
