Jack Cowin, founder and chairman of Competitive Foods Australia, transformed his entrepreneurial spirit into a fast food empire, bringing KFC to Australia in 1969 and later operating Hungry Jack’s and Domino’s Pizza. With a business now valued at over $3 billion, Cowin's journey began with a $1,000 deposit and a successful fundraising effort that led to the opening of his first franchise in Perth. Today, he owns 98% of his company, which generates over $300 million annually.
