Popeyes Louisiana Kitchen, Inc., commonly known as Popeyes, is an American multinational chain of fried chicken fast-food restaurants. Founded in 1972 in New Orleans, Louisiana, by Al Copeland, the brand has grown to become a significant player in the global quick-service restaurant industry.
As of 2021, Popeyes operates 3,705 restaurants across more than 46 U.S. states and the District of Columbia, Puerto Rico, and 30 countries worldwide. The menu features signature items such as spicy chicken, chicken sandwiches, chicken tenders, fried shrimp, and other seafood, complemented by regional sides like jambalaya, red beans and rice, and coleslaw.
In 2017, Popeyes became a subsidiary of Restaurant Brands International, a Toronto-based company that also owns Tim Hortons and Burger King. This acquisition has facilitated Popeyes’ expansion into new markets and the introduction of innovative menu items.
The brand has experienced significant growth in recent years, particularly with the introduction of its chicken sandwich in 2019, which garnered widespread attention and contributed to increased sales. Popeyes continues to focus on delivering flavorful, high-quality chicken dishes, maintaining its reputation as a leader in the fried chicken segment of the fast-food industry.

Please note that some of these numbers are easier to find than others. A few of these Popeyes statistics come from their own reports, but some are based on news reports and not official company tallies. No information contained on DMR should be relied upon to make investment decisions. Basically, this is the best I can find and I don’t guarantee anything to be 100%.
