    Red Rooster (Reds) is Australia’s first and favourite chicken shop with over 50 years of satisfying Australia’s chicken cravings. Reds is the only fast-food company in Australia that now truly specialises in both roast and fried chicken and is in an exciting time of change and innovation for the brand. As a national network of franchises, each Red Rooster restaurant is an individual small business owned and operated by a local franchisee. Not only do owners feed the local community, but they also employ locals. Through charity and sponsorships these family-owned businesses give back to the community and are a much-loved fixture nationwide.
