Consumer Friendly
According to Citi Research, Burger King is repackaging or renaming old goods to make them more consumer-friendly at a time when the McDonald’s menu is as confusing as ever, causing record drive-thru wait times. The resuscitation strategy includes direct competition with McDonald’s.
A not-so-subtle competitor to McDonald’s highly profitable Big Mac sandwich, Burger King released the Big King sandwich in November 2013 with two patties, a three-layer bun, and a unique sauce to compete with the popular Big Mac. In response to McDonald’s reintroducing the McRib sandwich, Burger King introduced the $1 BK BBQ Rib as a more affordable alternative.
Double Quarter Pound Burger
2018 saw the introduction of the double quarter-pound burger, which was a direct response to McDonald’s quarter-pound burger of the same name.Investing meaningfully in Burger King and McDonald’s typically entails purchasing and operating a new franchise location. Because each company operates on a worldwide scale and no two markets are equal, the most straightforward approach to assessing franchise opportunities is to consult Franchise Disclosure Documents (FDDs).
Franchise Disclosure
According to the McDonald’s 2020 Franchise Disclosure Document, the initial investment required to open a McDonald’s franchise ranges between $1.3 million and $2.3 million. The corporation charged an additional $45,000 as an initial franchise fee.
Final Say

So Burger King went after Canada’s largest coffee and doughnut chain, Tim Hortons Inc. 22 The CA$12.5 billion deal included $3 billion in financing from Warren Buffett’s Berkshire Hathaway.The value proposition of Burger King is clear. It’s like McDonald’s, but better and occasionally cheaper.
