Kalmar Fried Chicken (KFC) is a fast-food franchise founded by thomasfyfe in 2012. Kalmar Fried Chicken is a parody of the popular fast-food restaurant Kentucky Fried Chicken and was one of the first franchises on the server.
Although founded in Kalmar, the current headquarters for Kalmar Fried Chicken is located in Inchmuir.
History
Kalmar Fried Chicken was founded by thomasfyfe in September 2012, shortly after Miner_Tod had acquired the town of Kalmar. The first Kalmar Fried Chicken was built in an effort to help expand and rejuvenate the town. In October 2012, Kalmar Fried Chicken, along with other FyfeCorp subsidiaries, merged with LDShadowLord's CRUX Restaurants to form LDT Holdings, and the main CRUX store at Spawn Station was converted into Kalmar Fried Chicken's flagship store. In January 2013, all LDT Holdings assets were transferred to FyfeCorp, even though before LDT Holdings, Kalmar Fried Chicken had been a separate company.
Since its beginning, Kalmar Fried Chicken has opened up stores in over 90 locations. Kalmar Fried Beef, a parody restaurant also owned by Kalmar Fried Chicken, was also opened up next to the original store in Kalmar.
Kalmar Fried Chicken's flagship store is in Spawn City although its largest stores are in Robin's Hill and Morningside. There were two typical standard designs of a Kalmar Fried Chicken store; the standard design, and the deluxe design, but larger or customised stores were built to accommodate newer locations, often in pre-allocated mall spaces. The Drive-Through and Behemoth designs are typically reserved for larger cities or event areas.
In 2013, Kalmar Fried Chicken partnered with Dave's Doughnuts to supply their doughnuts to most Kalmar Fried Chicken stores. Stores that stock Dave's Doughnuts can be spotted by the pink wool block along side the regular Kalmar Fried Chicken menu.
Kalmar Fried Chicken was a gold-level sponsor for the second TacoBurritoAThon held in the Lacledic Republic.
Christmas Takeover Plot
In the Christmas of 2012, as part of thomasfyfe's Christmas adventure map, Kalmar Fried Chicken stores were being fabricated by an unauthorised factory. The factory was using Kalmar Fried Chicken stores in a world takeover plot headed by an unknown individual. Kalmar Fried Chicken stores had been turned into mechanised robots in order to stop Christmas and take over the world. One Kalmar Fried Chicken store was also mutated along with other franchise stores to create one Franchise Super Mech. The end of the adventure map had players saving Santa Claus and stopping the evil plot.
Rebrand
To coincide with the release of the New World, the design of Kalmar Fried Chicken stores were updated. This included the use of new materials, better seating layout, a standard menu set across different designs, and the introduction of the 'Flagship' class of store available to only the largest cities on the server.
100th Store Spectacular
As part of the celebrations surrounding reaching the milestone of 100 operating Kalmar Fried Chickens, three special Kalmar Fried Chickens were built in the New World. These stores were built in established towns and were distributed via a lottery which took place in December 2015.

Menu
The standard menu can be found within all New World Kalmar Fried Chicken stores. Speciality items can be found in some Flagship locations and in other stores where there is a partnership with a local food distributor, see in-stores for details. Dave's Doughnuts are served in select stores, often chose at random due to location of the nearest Dave's Doughnuts store. Old World stores serve a variation of the standard menu.
