    "We made the difficult but necessary decision to reorganize KFC to maximize efficiencies and better reflect our current business needs," said     Karen Sherman, senior director of public relations and internal communications at KFC, in a statement to Business First. "We are fully committed to dramatically improving our business performance and our guests' experience. We are doing everything possible to help support those affected by the reorganization in their transition."

    Other restaurant chains operated by Yum! Brands include Taco Bell and Pizza Hut.
