KFC experiencing shortages in wings and chicken strips

Jul 30, 2019 News

One of Guyana’s largest fast food entities, Kentucky Fried Chicken (KFC), has put out an advisory via its Facebook page that is sure to send fast food lovers into a panicked frenzy.
The entity is experiencing chicken shortage, which has caused its supply of wings and chicken strips to be in short supply hence there would not be a steady flow of the product.
In the advertisement KFC apologised for the inconvenience but thanked its customers for continuing to choose them.
This publication contacted Bounty Farms who claims to be KFC’s sole supplier of chicken.
A representative said that the entity is not experiencing a chicken shortage in the whole.
Supervisor Angelina Lim said, “We are not experiencing chicken shortage but due to the size of the chickens and them fluttering up and breaking their wings, we do not have enough to supply the usual orders.”
She went on to say that these fast food agencies usually order a lot of wings. Bounty is trying its best to supply at least half of the usual orders at KFC.
Also, the size of the chickens’ breast is currently very small and Bounty cannot fillet them so that has had an impact in fulfilling orders for chicken tenders and strips.
The issue should be fixed over the next week or so through efforts to have production and fulfilment of orders back to normal.
