Brand History and Origin

Popeyes Louisiana Kitchen was founded in 1972 by Al Copeland in Arabi, a suburb of New Orleans, Louisiana, USA. Originally named "Popeyes Mighty Good Fried Chicken", the brand gained worldwide recognition for its distinctive New Orleans-style fried chicken, biscuits, and bold cajun seasonings.

Ownership Structure

In 2017, Popeyes was acquired by Restaurant Brands International (RBI), a Canadian-American multinational fast food holding company formed in 2014 by the merger of Burger King and Tim Hortons, with major backing from 3G Capital. RBI is headquartered in Toronto, Ontario, Canada.

Operations and Manufacturing in Spain

In Spain and Portugal, Popeyes is master-franchised and operated by Restaurant Brands Iberia (RB Iberia). Prepared meals ordered for takeaway or home delivery are cooked fresh on-site in local Spanish restaurants, utilizing local poultry suppliers and regional packaging manufacturers.
