Kenny Rogers Roasters
Country musician Kenny Rogers is best known as the person who sang, “You’ve got to know when to hold ’em, know when to fold ’em”. If you don’t know him for his music, perhaps you recognize his name from the rotisserie chicken restaurant chain founded in 1991. He did this with the help of John Y. Brown, a former KFC investor. The restaurants have a special place in American pop culture. In 1996, there was an episode of Seinfeld where Kramer declared war on a KRR store across his apartment! If you only watched the reruns, you might have no idea what Kenny Rogers Roasters is. This is because it no longer lives on in North America. However, it is doing well in Southeast Asia because a Malaysian company operates it now.
