Burger King To Get Makeover

Burger King To Get Makeover

What's out:

  • The steady stream of $1 value menu promotions
  • Earth-tone decor
  • Marketing to a young, male consumer
  • Mansard roof
  • The King, who is on an "extended vacation"
  • Whopper Virgins and Subservient Chicken commercials
  • Ad agency Crispin Porter

What's in:

  • Asian chicken salad
  • Mango smoothies
  • Red and black interior color scheme
  • Offering something for everyone, especially females
  • "Home of the Whopper" in big letters on the exterior
  • Canopies over drive-through
  • Varied seatings with movable tables, booths with privacy banners
  • Commercials showcasing the food

What's staying the same:

  • The Whopper

In the next 18 months, Burger King hopes to remodel 1,000 of its 7,272 U.S. outposts. For the quarter ending March 31, Burger King reported a loss of $6.8 million, so perhaps this renovation is coming just in time.
