Default USA :Burger King franchise with 118 restaurants files for bankruptcy
[Burger King franchise with 118 restaurants
files for bankruptcy after accruing debts
of $14million triggering closures
across six states.
Higher costs and wages had hurt the company
looking to build back after Covid
Follows separate closure of 26 outlets
this month, with 424 staff losing jobs]



[The franchisee said it was 'possible,
if not likely' they would be pressed
to close more stores as they negotiated
rent and operational improvements with
landlords.]


https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/art...14million.html


China's Covid
caused all this.


Burger King remains
but 118 of them will be closed

Wahlburgers are the way to go. They need to open some over here.

Tired chain that has had its day and the prices they are asking are laughable

I always go to McDonald's instead. Way cheaper.
The one in Leicester Square is always full.
But I don't go very often.

Does Burger King know what disgusting food is?

Seriously though I think that Burger King are probably harming themselves by being more expensive than McDonald's.
