in 1952, sanders franchised his secret recipe "kentucky fried chicken" for the first time, to pete harman of south salt lake, utah, the operator of one of that city's largest restaurants. in the first year of selling the product, restaurant sales more than tripled, with 75% of the increase coming from sales of fried chicken. for harman, the addition of fried chicken was a way of differentiating his restaurant from competitors; in utah, a product hailing from kentucky was unique and evoked imagery of southern hospitality. don anderson, a sign painter hired by harman, coined the name "kentucky fried chicken". after harman's success, several other restaurant owners franchised the concept and paid sanders $0.04 per chicken.
