Burger King, founded in 1954, has cemented its position as a leader in the fast food sector, with the Whopper® being one of its most renowned offerings. The brand began franchising in 1959 and is based in Miami, Florida. It operates under the Burger King Corporation, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Restaurant Brands International Limited Partnership.
In 1978, Burger King underwent a significant restructuring under the leadership of Donald N. Smith, a former McDonald's executive. This restructuring aimed to standardize operations and maintain quality control, implementing restrictions on franchise ownership to ensure proximity to restaurants and prevent large franchises from dominating the brand.
Burger King offers various franchising opportunities, including traditional standalone restaurants, non-traditional outlets within other businesses, institutional locations, and delivery-only services. A standard franchise agreement for a standalone restaurant typically spans 20 years, with renewal contingent on compliance with the franchisor's standards and agreements.
