Burger King


The business I researched was Burger King that was founded in 1954. It’s the 2nd largest fast food hamburger chain in the world and famous for the Whopper. Their strategy has been to be committed to premium ingredients, signature recipes, and family friendly dinning. Since they are a fast food restaurant they are able to provide quick, cheap prices for their food that is desirable to many consumers. In 1959 Burger King started to expand across the United States and internationally and by 1967 there were 275 restaurants. In 1989 Burger King started to add kids into the scene to attract more business.  Over the years Burger King has incorporated updates such as remodeling their restaurants, offering on-line gift cards for all occasions, a mascot, different foods, and a 1-800 telephone number where the customer  comments on their experience at the restaurant.  This constant slight reinvention has made Burger King successful and progressive. Their web site is attractively done and has a timeline of events of how Burger King has evolved.
