Colonel Sanders sold the business in 1964 for $2 million and continued to collect a salary for his work as the face of the brand. The company went public two years later and was listed on the New York Stock Exchange by 1969. In 1971, Heublein Inc. acquired KFC for $285 million.Today, the KFC brand is worth roughly $8.5 billion and sees $26.2 billion in sales as one of the world's top 100 most valuable brands

Wow! Thanks for that fascinating information!

How can you have 26 billion in sales but are only worth 8 billion. Companies are worth many multiples the revenue

Something tells me Sanders didn't buy a yacht, 10 houses, a jet, and bling.

They did not mention the name "Kentucky Fried Chicken" because it was not the show's sponsor. Very strict sponsorship rules in those days.

I didn't even think of that. But he did manage to shoehorn in his slogan of Finger Lickin Good (which I guess was trademarked even back then??)

I like how they suggested Col Sanders would look good on a label (like whisky), because his look and image is iconic now.

Col. Sanders $2 million check was worth about $16,724,850 in 2019.
@maxdecphoenix3 жыл бұрын
no, you have that backwards. His 2million check was worth two-million. However as inflation has eroded the purchasing power (value) of each 1964 dollar by 89%, a person in 2020 would need $16.7 million modern dollars to match the same purchase power of the Col.'s 2million.

Bill Cullen , a great game show host did not make it to 74 years old . The age of Col. Sanders at that time . Mr. Cullen was also great as a panelist on IGAS .

My paternal Grandfather passed away in 1966 at age 78 -he had already retired about 1950 when he was 62 (rules different back then). My paternal grandmother had never worked and she was 67 at that time! I’m telling this story because she received Grandpa’s social security check for $125.00 to live on till she passed away in 1974 age 76. Can any of you imagine living off that amount of money??? SS is still not really giving many retired people enough to actually live on -

This video is so special. Col. Sanders' franchises are still around today and his face is still being seen. I wonder if he had any ideas his business would be THIS successful. Way to go, Colonel.

That little boy has a Mickey Mantle card!! My sin collected baseball cards when he was younger (he’s 44) and my husband bought a Mickey card quite a few years ago - I never knew what he paid for it (I’m glad!!!) but it was more than the 10cents or so it sold for when this program aired! I sure hope this little guy kept his collection - probably would buy a house today😄😄😄. And yes, our son still has his while collection!!!

Garry Moore was nearly 50 years old in 1964. He may have put some dye in his hair to darken it.

@@TheElliotPage Thanks for the explanation. I tend to forget that many of the KZbin presentations of B&W episodes of TV shows from 1950's and early 1960's are kinescopes. Kinescopes typically have a crude, grainy and distorted appearance.

Because this was 1964 and KFC was only just getting started as a national brand about this time. Sanders' face was on the buckets but it wasn't an everyday name yet.
