Clovis Kentucky Fried Chicken Building Up for Sale

A just-over 2,600-square-foot building, housing a Kentucky Fried Chicken outlet in Clovis, is now on the market with an asking price of around $1.8 million.

Located a mile to the northeast of downtown Clovis at 2120 N. Prince Street, the building was completed in 1987 and is designated as a Class C structure. Sitting on a less than one-acre site, the one-story building underwent some renovation work in 2020.

As part of the vast Kentucky Fried Chicken chain, the building is fairly typical, with most of its exterior bright white stores measuring between 2,000 and 3,000 square feet.

Founded in 1930 with its first franchise location opening in 1952, Kentucky Fried Chicken is internationally famous because of its secret “11 herbs and spices” recipe. In the arena of public relations, its owner, the late Colonel Harland Sanders with his white suit, white goatee, and string tie became, by the 1960s, one of the most famous brand personalities in fast-food history.

What is commonly referenced as KFC, based in Louisville, Kentucky, now has more than 24,000 locations. Those locations are not always owned by the company, which means that many of them are often up for sale.

According to the site NNN Deal Finder, there are currently half a dozen KFC buildings for sale nationally, ranging in asking price from nearly $1.3 million in Anthony, Texas, to more than $4.7 million in West Palm Beach, Florida.

The site Crexi.com lists over 40 KFC buildings, with the lowest-price store advertised in Shreveport, Louisiana for nearly $562,000, and the most expensive property in Janesville, Wisconsin at just over $2.6 million.

 KFC has long embraced an aggressive location expansion model, building at least two new stores somewhere in the world every day.

The Clovis KFC building is listed with the Phoenix-based realtor Marcus & Millichap.
