KFC Japan promotional campaigns

Overview

KFC Japan has initiated several promotional campaigns involving new menu items and themed events.

In late August 2026, the company announced the nationwide release of its ‘Torori Tsukimi’ series, a limited-time lineup focused on egg flavors and textures. Starting August 26, the series includes products such as the ‘Torori Tsukimi Filet Burger’, ‘Torori Tsukimi Twister’, and ‘Mochi and Rich Custard Tsukimi Pie’. Other offerings include the ‘Torori Tsukimi Japanese-style Katsu Burger Kobore Tartar’, which features increased tartar sauce, and a version with three layers of egg-style omelets. Musician Takanori Nishikawa, known as T.M. Revolution, was appointed as the brand ambassador, appearing in a concept movie titled ‘T.M.G. Revolution’. Additionally, a television commercial featuring Shihori Sato began airing.

Simultaneously, the company implemented localized promotions, including a collaboration with the game ‘Uma Musume Pretty Derby’ at the Ikebukuro Nishiguchi store and a ‘KFC Delivery at the Beach’ event at Yuigahama Beach.

Expanding its product offerings, the company announced the nationwide release of ‘Crazy Dip Chicken’ starting September 2. This snack consists of crunchy-coated chicken breast pieces served with a choice of special KFC, barbecue, or mustard sauce. The company is also offering limited-time discounts on nuggets through September 29.

As part of the ‘Original Chicken Deliciousness Secret Discovery Campaign’, which runs from June to September to celebrate founder Colonel Sanders’ birth month, KFC Japan will host a three-day pop-up restaurant titled ‘Meister’s Kitchen’ at its Takadanobaba branch from September 11 to September 13. Model Shiori Sato attended the opening ceremony to observe the cooking process under the guidance of Kazuki Kasahara, Japan’s only ‘Chicken Meister’. The event will feature all-you-can-eat original chicken, cooking workshops, and demonstrations.
