KFC Glow Up- Troy, Alabama Style

The Kentucky Fried Chicken in Troy just got a lot more tasteful… not only in food quality but also in its visual aspect. The newly remodeled KFC looks a lot different than the traditional KFC. It features a roof that resembles a popped bucket of chicken, intended to grab hungry drivers attention.

KFC started their remodeling process in late 2016 to more than 50 locations across the United States. Troy’s KFC just got remodeled a few weeks ago, and is now reopening to consumers!

It took them about two weeks to transform the KFC in Troy from its old design to its new look. To ease through the remodeling process, the restaurant tried to keep their drive-thru open. This was a great idea in order to reduce employee turnover and sales!

Savannah DuBose, a junior at Troy University, gave me her opinion about the newly renovated KFC. She stated, “ The KFC in Troy has an overall great environment! After the new renovation, the chicken seems crispier and the restaurant seems cleaner.”

The main feature on the inside of the restaurant is the bucket chandelier (shown on the left). It hangs over a circular table and immediately grabs your attention when you walk in. The unique part of this feature is its inspiration from Colonel Sander’s first restaurant, where all customers sat around one table.

A few other features in the remodeled restaurant include the numerous photos of Colonel Sanders. These are placed along the back wall and are meant to make it well known that he is a very special part of the restaurant. There are also quotes from Sanders placed in various locations. One quote says, “A Real Meal Is A Meal Made The Hard Way.”

However, the food has stayed the same throughout the whole remodeling process. A lot of consumers feel as if the food has gotten tastier since the upgrade, which was a smart goal KFC definitely had in mind when doing this!

So if you have not stopped by the newly renovated Troy KFC, I highly recommend you do! Also, do not forget to check out the inside features! Enjoy your fried chicken!
