Burger King Philippines bagged the top franchisee excellence award in the recent 2016
Asia Pacific Gold Crown Franchisee Convention, in Orlando, USA. BK Philippines was given
due recognition for being best in overall profit, sales growth and management systems. The
company has grown 70 stores from 24, and 380 employees from 77. According to Jose Miñana
Jr., Jollibee Foods Corporation’s group president for North America and foreign franchise brands
in the Philippines, JFC, as a strategic partner, is committed to a significant value to the franchise
operation of Burger King Philippines. JFC has an excellent track record of successfully growing
its joint ventures and acquired businesses.
Burger King produced goods and services worth $868.1 billion in 2016 and supplied an
annual payroll of $351.1 billion, accounting for 3.4 percent of the private sector gross domestic
product, according to an International Franchise Association report. Franchise businesses
contributed indirectly to the Philippine economy in other ways, too. According to the report,
franchises were the cause of more than 16 million jobs, $723.2 billion of annual payroll and $2.1
trillion of annual output, which ultimately accounted for 7.4 percent of the GDP.
Job growth in the franchise sector has outpaced growth in all other sectors economy-
wide. In the last five years, job growth in the franchise sector was 2.6 percent, annually, which is
almost 2 percent higher than all businesses. Looking at it as whole numbers, franchising added
almost 1 million jobs to the economy. Franchising hot streak is projected to continue through the
rest of 2018. Burger King Philippines contributed to this of 400 employees and P17.2 billion
sales grew by 11.1 percent year-on-year during the first quarter which would generate more tax
revenue for the funding of the government.
Burger King has two of its own in-house national charitable organizations and programs.
One is the Have It Your Way Foundation, a US-based non-profit corporation with multiple
focuses on hunger alleviation, disease prevention and community education through scholarship
programs. The other charitable organization is the McLamore Foundation, also a non-profit,
corporation that provides scholarships to students.. In the Pittsburgh region, it funded the
establishment of the Burger King Cancer Caring Center, a support organization for the families
and friends of cancer patients.
