History

Tastee Fried Chicken was founded by Olayinka Pamela Adedayo. It began as an extension of "Tastee Pot", an outdoor catering company serving Nigerian and continental food at special events. The catering company still exists as Tastee Fried Chicken's catering operation [ cite web|url=http://www.tasteefriedchicken.net/AboutUs/tabid/55/Default.aspx |title=Tastee Fried Chicken: About Us |publisher=Tastee Fried Chicken, Limited |accessdate=2008-04-12] .

In 1997 Mrs. Adedayo incorporated Tastee Fried Chicken and opened her first location in Surulere, Lagos. She based her restaurant on the business model of the American fast food chicken restaurant Kentucky Fried Chicken, where she had previously worked as a manager. Since opening its first location, it has grown to more than 8 restaurants [ cite web|url=http://www.tasteefriedchicken.net/AboutUs/tabid/55/Default.aspx |title=Tastee Fried Chicken: About Us |publisher=Tastee Fried Chicken, Limited |accessdate=2008-04-12] .
