LOUISVILLE, Ky., July 12, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- Today Kentucky
Fried Chicken® launched a new online merchandise shop, KFC Ltd.,
along with its first collection of quality fried chicken apparel
and limited-edition goods for their finger lickin' fans.
With fresh swag starting at just $8, the debut collection includes KFC- and
Colonel Sanders-inspired T-shirts, enamel pins, framed artwork, and
more. Collection items are produced in limited-edition quantities,
so when they sell out, they're gone – the fried chicken faithful
are encouraged to act fast and then keep an eye out for the next
collection to be released.
KFC Ltd. offers limited-edition apparel and goods for any
occasion:
- Need to keep it classy for the office? Fried chicken socks will
add a pop of drumstick to any ensemble. If you're looking for a
matching tie, you can't go wrong with a classic Colonel Sanders
string bow tie.
- KFC's mantra is something we should all live by, and the
"Finger Lickin' Good" gold-plated necklace will let you proudly
proclaim your embrace of the fried chicken lifestyle.
- The Colonel Sanders pillowcase will let the dreamers in your
life fall asleep each night next to the man who turned his dream of
building a fried chicken empire into a reality.
- No matter where you're actually from, we're all united by a
shared love of tasty fried chicken. Show off your hometown pride
with the softest Fried Chicken USA
sweatshirt.
Of all the products offered on KFC Ltd., there is one that is
truly out of this world – a 400-year-old meteorite. Retailing for
$20,000, this one-of-a-kind, real
space rock has been molded into the shape of a Zinger chicken
sandwich and serves as a commemorative memento of the Zinger's
stratospheric mission.
"KFC and Colonel Sanders have been American pop culture icons
for more than 70 years. Our fans were craving a way to embrace the
fried chicken lifestyle, and KFC Ltd. gives them the opportunity to
let their colonel flag fly," said Steve
Kelly, KFC U.S. director of media and digital.
KFC plans to partner with other notable apparel and lifestyle
brands to create one-of-a-kind collaborations available only from
KFC Ltd. in the future. The first collection of quality chicken
goods from KFC Ltd. are available for purchase online starting
today at http://www.kfclimited.com/.
This line was created in collaboration with Wieden+Kennedy.
