PROFILE |
 |
All hail AmeriKing, which runs neck and neck with Carrols Corp. as the nation's #1 independent Burger King franchisee. The company operates about 379 Burger King restaurants in 12 states, principally in the South and Midwest. The Burger King system (the second-largest fast-food burger chain in the US, after McDonald's) is highly fragmented: More than 90% of its locations are owned and operated by franchisees. The company has slowed down plans for expanding its portfolio due to slumping sales over the last two years. AmeriKing is a unit of Jordan Industries, a Deerfield, Illinois-based conglomerate, which founded the company in 1994 with a group of franchisees.
