Restaurant Brands International 's Executive Chairman Patrick Doyle discussed the state of the consumer with CNBC's Jim Cramer, saying that menus with meals at varying price points help those who feel the weight of inflation. Restaurant Brands International owns a number of fast food chains, including Burger King, Popeyes and Tim Hortons. Doyle specifically discussed Burger King and indicated the chain can't just hike up prices when inflation is high. "We think we've got a great menu offering now that has higher end items and kind of entry level items," Doyle said. Restaurant Brands International reported solid earnings on Tuesday, and shares were up 2.72% by close.

The Burger King logo is displayed at a Burger King fast food restaurant on January 17, 2024 in Burbank, California. Burger King will invest another $300 million to remodel about 1,100 of its U.S. restaurants as part of a broader turnaround effort, the chain's parent company said Tuesday. About 100 Burger King locations have been remodeled and updated so far. Still, Burger King has had to chip in its own money to incentivize franchisees to remodel. Burger King will let operators choose how much of a discount they get on the royalties they pay to the company.

Fast-food giants are rapidly deploying more order kiosks in the US. AdvertisementMajor US fast-food chains plan to aggressively add more digital order kiosks to their restaurants – and bring in bigger checks in the process. They make up "well over" half of its in-restaurant orders at these locations, CFO Katie Fogertey told investors in November. As well as labor savings, kiosk orders "tend to skew to dine-in" and thus use less packaging than other digital orders, she said. In the US, digital orders currently make up just 15% of Burger King's sales.

In France, a land of fine dining, Michelin stars and high standards for cuisine, there's a surprising favorite: American fast food. Expilly oversaw Popeyes' 2023 arrival in France while serving as COO of Popeyes France for French restaurant group Napaqaro. Burger King specifically has gone aggressively after the market "given the propensity for American quick service foods and concepts in France," Charles said. In 2024, McDonald's and Burger King hold more than 40% of the market, according to Euromonitor International, and now consider it their biggest one outside the U.S. French QSRs did take a hit in 2020, but the industry bounced back quickly, earning more profits in 2021 than before the pandemic, according to Euromonitor International.

Burger King execs say the chain is planning to speed up the rollout of digital order kiosks. AdvertisementAdvertisementBurger King will double-down on digital order kiosks, which bosses say are better for both staff and customers – and also lead to bigger orders.

Burger King posted systemwide sales growth of 10.3% to $7.06 billion in the quarter to September 30 compared with the same period in 2022.
