KFC tests disposable typing trays for smartphone users with sticky fingers
By Matthew Lyle • May 26, 2015
KFC has trialled disposable paper typing trays in Germany to make it easier for smartphone users to browse the web without getting troublesome grease and bits of chicken on their devices.
The brand, which acknowledges its propensity to cause mess with the ‘Finger Lickin’ Good’ proposition, has created a quick fix for those looking to embark on a working lunch.
Instead of having to sully smartphones or tablets with greasy fingerprints, the firm tested a number of super thin, rechargeable wireless keyboards which can connect with devices via Bluetooth.
The campaign, ran by Serviceplan, Germany, was sadly a marketing stunt although it does indicate that the firm is at least taking a serious look at integrating technology with its overall in-store vibe.
