The holidays are a special time of year, and for businesses especially, as it’s during this time that massive profit can be made. For example, the cookie-cutter Christmas movies that Hallmark churns out every year produces $390 million in ad revenue (via Adweek). Additionally, big-box stores like Walmart and Best Buy stock the shelves in preparation for the Black Friday rush, grocery stores anticipate big shopping sprees for Thanksgiving, and the fast food industry counts on some special dates, too.
While McDonald’s shared a special Mariah Menu for the Christmas season, Kentucky Fried Chicken is gearing up for its own most anticipated holiday — Mother’s Day. According to EATER, the fried chicken chain sees an impressive 50% jump in profits on the Spring Sunday that we celebrate mom. That’s certainly a lot of fried chicken and mashed potatoes! But why does the popular chain see such an increase on Mother’s Day?

It could be KFC’s clever advertising
While we may not know the exact reason behind this phenomenon, we do know that all moms are special and like to celebrate in their own way. Some may enjoy a brunch or a spa day, yet others are happiest when hanging out at home with the kiddos, and perhaps KFC simply offers the right amount of variety for the whole family.
