Burger King swallows 35 outlets from Bon-Food

Burger King Singapore has announced an agreement for the acquisition of 35 new Burger King outlets from Bon-Food Pte. Ltd.

The transaction is expected to be complete on Feb. 1, 2010.

These 35 outlets are the bulk of the 40 what Bon-Food operated.

Subsequent to the transaction, Burger King Singapore Pte. Ltd. will operate a total of 39 Burger King restaurants in the market as well as the Whopper Bar restaurant located in Singapore’s Clarke Quay.

Peter Tan, President of Burger King Asia Pacific says the acquisition allows Burger King to further diversify the global company restaurant portfolio and establishes Singapore as the company’s Asia Pacific headquarters, as a strong company market for the region.

Bon-Food has been a Burger King franchisee in Singapore since 1983 when it opened the first restaurant at Holland Village.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

Reaching the people who run Asia's businesses is harder than it used to be.

Inboxes are crowded. Attention is short. The executives you most want to reach — the founders, CFOs, and operators who actually move budgets — are the hardest to find through the usual channels. If you're building a company, a category, or a reputation, you already know this.

We've spent twenty years building the room they read. Singapore Business Review is where senior decision makers in Singapore and across Southeast Asia come for business coverage they can't get elsewhere — in print, online, and in person at the summits and roundtables we host across seven markets.

If you have something these readers should know about — a point of view worth publishing, a product worth their attention, an event worth their time — we'd like to hear what you're trying to do.
