Kentucky Fried Chicken is leaving Kentucky & moving to Texas. Welcome to Texas, Colonel & company. Many hungry Texans appreciate your move. Now, and hear me out, any chance you would consider a name like Texas Fried Chicken or TFC? It’s a great brand https://t.co/nYKqi9DayO

Texas Governor Greg Abbott has suggested Kentucky Fried Chicken should change its name to Texas Fried Chicken, after KFC announced it is moving its U.S. headquarters to the Lone Star State. Newsweek contacted Yum!

"This strategic decision will involve relocating KFC U.S. corporate office employees currently in Louisville, Kentucky, to the KFC and Pizza Hut Global headquarters in Plano, Texas. In addition, U.S.-based remote employees will be asked to relocate to the campus where their work happens."

Addressing the federal employee layoffs as part of Musk’s Department of Government Efficiency initiatives, Colbert said, “The federal workers are naturally experiencing anger, chaos, and confusion, which, coincidentally, are also the Secret Service codenames for Trump, Elon and Don Jr.”

KFC's corporate staff will relocate from the brand's headquarters in Louisville, Kentucky, to Plano, Texas, Yum says.

KFC will be moving its longtime headquarters from Kentucky, the only home its ever known, to Plano, Texas, the company announced on Tuesday.

The KFC chain — launched by Colonel Harland Sanders and his secret blend of 11 herbs and spices — will be based in Plano, Texas, and about 100 KFC corporate employees will be relocated in the next six months, said Yum Brands, which owns KFC, Taco Bell and Pizza Hut.
