"If you've never seen a Krispy Krunchy Chicken restaurant, it's for a good reason. They don't exist. The company refers to itself as a program. You become a licensee through your own business, which is typically a convenience store or a gas station. You can also find the chicken being sold in delis and some supermarkets. Licensees are provided equipment, if they need it, and then given the supplies and directions on how to produce the chicken."
"Tasting Table ranked 15 fast food chicken wings, and Krispy Krunchy came in second overall. Our taste tester had initially dismissed the wings after a lackluster first try, but went back for more and got a fresh-cooked batch, which made all the difference. Not only were they priced better than most chain wings, our reviewer thought they were actually the best of all the wings ... but they lost points because they don't travel or sit as well as Tex's wings."
"Krispy Krunchy Chicken is available in over 3,200 locations. That means that after KFC (with just under 3,800 locations), Krispy Krunchy is the second-largest chain in America. Popeyes has just under 3,100, and Chick-fil-A is at 2,500. The chicken is infused with a mild Cajun marinade at the supplier and then hand-breaded at the store to ensure consistency across the many locations where it's available. It's never frozen, so the idea is to give you a fresh, tasty product, and it definitely delivers."
Krispy Krunchy Chicken operates as a licensing program that places its product inside convenience stores, gas stations, delis, and some supermarkets rather than standalone restaurants. The company supplies equipment, ingredients, and preparation directions so licensees can hand-bread freshly supplied, never-frozen chicken that is infused at the supplier with a mild Cajun marinade. The brand appears in over 3,200 locations, making it the second-largest chain by location count behind KFC. A taste test ranked Krispy Krunchy second among 15 fast-food wings, praising flavor and price while noting that wings do not retain quality as well during travel or sitting.
