KFC slips to fourth-largest U.S. chicken chain as Chick-fil-A and Raising Cane's surge
KFC, which marketed itself as having made chicken famous, has fallen behind competitors Chick-fil-A and Raising Cane's and now ranks fourth by U.S. market share. The chain's domestic market position has weakened as China and Europe have become larger revenue sources than the United States. In response, KFC is rebranding its logos, menu offerings, and restaurant locations to compete in the crowded fast-food sector.
