To know the market response of KFC we visited various chains of KFC and we also had survey on the public (who are the basic consumers of the KFC).
We visited KFC chain of Noida Sector18, Lajpat Nagar, Center Stage Mall, Noida, and Ghaziabad. We concluded that according to the areas the demand keeps on fluctuating, like there is more demand in Sector 18 market chain of Noida in comparison to Center Stage Mall and we have the maximum demand in Lajpat Nagar.
After the survey on chains we had a survey on the public of city through a feed back form. We also had a survey on the people working in the KFC through the human recourse feed back from.
We found that they are totally satisfied by the human resource strategies of KFC. By people we concluded that they are also satisfied by the service provided by KFC, and the product what they provide are up to the mark. They find KFC food a best quality food. But then also KFC have to work hard to earn the goodwill in market in comparison to other fast food chains.

Throughout the 1970s and 1980s, KFC experienced mixed fortunes domestically, as it went through a series of corporate owners who had little or no experience in the restaurant business. In the early 1970s, KFC was sold to the spirits firm Heublein, who were taken over by the R.J. Reynolds food and tobacco conglomerate, who sold the chain to PepsiCo.
