AgencyKPI Announces Expansion With New Division Aimed At Fried Chicken Restaurant Data
AUSTIN, TX — AgencyKPI, developer of the first business intelligence platform designed to address and manage the abundance of data produced by multiple software programs and legacy systems across the insurance industry, today announced the creation of a new division to focus on the data produced by fried chicken-based, fast food restaurants worldwide.
“While we continue to build our name in the insurance industry, we’re also hungry for a new opportunity. The fried chicken sector has been clucking along at 8% of the restaurant market for far too long in the United States. Better data means better chicken and we have a secret recipe for data, so the new division we’re hatching today will help shove sandwiches, pizza and hamburgers out of the way,” said Bobby Billman, co-founder of AgencyKPI.
The chicken industry, or Big Chicken, is one of the most successful sectors in agriculture—and growing. By 2025, North Americans will spend more than $2.56 billion at quick-service fried chicken restaurants, and the global fried chicken market is expected to reach more than $8.25 billion.
“That’s a lot of fried chicken and buckets of data,” said Billman.
Globally, the future for fried chicken restaurants is equally bright. When chicken was first served in China in 1987, dark meat was the only choice available for purchase. White meat was soon added to the menu along with extra crispier options and the popularity of Zhá jī has exploded ever since.
AgencyKPI will be hiring new staff for AgencyKFC. The new spin-off aims to be up and running by National Fried Chicken Day on July 6, 2021.
AgencyKFC is something we should launch, but we are not really going to launch it, because it’s April Fool’s Day and we are thrilled that you are still reading this.
