Revamping Burger King – Circa 1970

With close to 20,000 locations around the world, Burger King restaurants are an undeniable American landmark. The history of the uber-famous fast food chain started in 1953, in Jacksonville, Florida. However, it was only until the ’70s that Burger King became the franchise business we know today.

The revamping of Burger King started in 1978 when the people who ran the corporation decided to hire a former McDonald’s executive to restructure the business. Nowadays, Burger King generates revenue of more than $1.9 billion in the United States alone. It’s the most profitable fast-food chain in the world right after McDonald’s, Starbucks, and Subway.
