The KFC Index is an informal guide to measure purchasing power parity comparing exchange rates in African countries.[1][2][3] Inspired by the Big Mac Index, the key difference between the two indices is that the KFC Index focuses solely on Africa; the Big Mac Index coverage is worldwide but not as applicable to Africa since McDonald's has little presence there, whereas KFC chains operate in almost 20 countries across the continent.
