  • Trading Spaces
    Trading Spaces: Detailing the Top Mergers and Acquisitions of the Year By Linda Helman Senior Editor Trading Spaces: Detailing the Top Mergers and Acquisitions of the Year Despite the ups and downs of the economy in recent years and its impact on the retail environment, some companies are living by the old adage that “you have to spend money to make money.” At Chain Store Guide, we not only keep track of who’s doing what in the retail and foodservice marketplaces, we keep track of who owns the major players and who’s buying and selling them. Between September 2010 and September 2011, Chain Store Guide recorded 73 transactions that resulted in more than 26,000 stores and restaurants changing hands. That follows the 2009-2010 year of 67 deals involving more than 11,000 locations. Deals are currently pending for another 500+ units. The following are some details behind the five largest transactions that occurred this past year. 3G Capital Management Acquires Burger King Holdings – October 2010 Biggest by far of the current deals was 3G Capital Management’s takeover of Burger King Holdings in October 2010. What started out as Insta-Burger King in the early 1950’s has grown to a multinational corporation with more than 12,000 restaurants around the world. After being acquired from British alcoholic-beverage giant Diageo in 2002 by TPG Capital (formerly Texas Pacific Group), Burger King was reorganized and taken public in 2006. Despite efforts at revamping the menu, remodeling many of the tired and outdated stores, and the introduction of the BK Whopper Bar, the company’s stock began to fall, and the owners divested their holdings, selling to Brazilian-based 3G Capital.
