Every day, more than 11 million guests visit Burger King Restaurants around the world and they do so because Burger King is known for serving high-quality, great-tasting and affordable food. In addition to its popular Whopper sandwich, the chain offers a selection of burgers, chicken sandwiches, salads, and breakfast items, along with beverages, desserts, and sides. Burger King’s menu has expanded from a basic offerings of burgers, French fries, sodas, and milkshakes to a larger and more diverse set of products. Many of the eateries are stand-alone locations offering dine-in seating and drive-through services; the chain also includes units in high-traffic locations such as airports and shopping malls. Burger King Worldwide is owned and operated by Restaurant Brands International. GEOGRAPHIC OUTREACH Burger King has restaurant locations throughout the US and more than 100 other countries. The US and Canada are responsible for about 65% of revenues. Like most other giants of the fast-food industry, Burger King has expanded its nationwide and international presence primarily through franchising. But the company has reduced its domestic expansion efforts recently. Burger King has used joint ventures to expand in countries like China, Mexico, Russia, and Singapore. GPS HOSPITALITY GPS Hospitality is a rapidly growing franchisee group. GPS recently expanded their national footprint into five new states with the acquisition of 194 Burger King restaurants. This recent acquisition doubles the company’s size and puts it firmly among the top three largest Burger King franchisees in the US with 424 locations nationwide. GPS Hospitality is on track to meet its goal of becoming a $1 billion company in sales in just 10 years. 8 | Matthews the offering Property Name Burger King 5353 Plank Road Property Address Baton Rouge, LA 70805 Assessor’s Parcel Number 162-241-18-00 parcel map Zoning PD-1 Site Description Number of Stories 1 Gross Leasable Area (GLA) ± 3,271 SF Lot Size ± 0.68 Acres Oceanside Blvd ± 31,792 Type of Ownership NNN Parking 55 Surface Spaces Parking Ratio 16 : 1,000 SF Landscaping Professional Topography Generally Level 40,116 ± Blvd College Construction Foundation Concrete Slab Framing Wood Exterior Brick Parking Surface Asphalt Roof Flat Burger King, Baton Rouge, LA | 9 tenant map 10 | Matthews area overview Baton Rouge, LA Situated on the Mississippi River, Baton Rouge represents the best of Louisiana’s vibrant culture.
