Dubai, UAE – 10 November 2026:

KFC is bringing a new creative energy to the chicken category with KFC MIX’D, partnering with Jeddah-born multidisciplinary artist and creative director Bayan Yasien for the KFC MIX’D tub design to bring the launch to life through a distinctly Saudi creative lens.

The brand that made chicken famous is introducing a new way to enjoy it with KFC MIX’D, bringing what’s next to the chicken category by putting fans in control.
