KFC has been around for decades, but that doesn't mean the chicken giant isn't still evolving. KFC has big plans for the brand in 2025.

KFC, formerly known as Kentucky Fried Chicken, is officially leaving the state it’s named after. The fast food chain’s parent company, Yum! Brands, announced on Tuesday that KFC will be moving its corporate headquarters to Texas. Specifically, the Dallas suburb of Plano, where KFC will join sister brand Pizza Hut’s offices.

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! Brands, KFC's parent company, for comment on Thursday outside of regular office hours.

Yum Brands Inc. said Tuesday it expects first-quarter same-store sales growth at Taco Bell to outpace its overall pace as it plans to grow the fast-food chain’s footprint. Yum Brands said it expects first-quarter same-store sales growth of 8% for Taco Bell.
