KFC is going ultra-retro this holiday season by flashing back to both the mini-skirt days of 1966, as well as the slightly bell-bottomier year of 1971 with its vintage-inspired holiday chicken buckets, a news release said.
The replica buckets bring back details from KFC's history, including the now retired tagline, "North America's Hospitality Dish." The 2020 design, inspired by the brand's heritage buckets, rounds out this year's lineup with some modern flair.
"KFC bucket meals have been bringing people together around the dinner table for more than 60 years," KFC U.S. CMO Andrea Zahumensky, said in the release. "Even though the holidays may look a little different this year, we hope our holiday buckets help everyone hark back to a simpler time and bring some comfort and joy to your homes and your families throughout the season."
KFC first introduced its now iconic bucket packaging in 1957 when Pete Harman, the owner of the first KFC franchised restaurant, purchased buckets and began advertising a bucket meal, which had 14 pieces of chicken, mashed potatoes, and gravy. Today, more than 60 million buckets of Kentucky Fried Chicken are sold in the U.S. each year.
Globally, KFC has more than 24,000 restaurants in over 145 countries and territories.
