The 2020 North American "store closing tide" is coming! Starbucks, Subway, Burger King, Pizza Hut, these chains at your door will be closed...

More than half of winter

US retail market

This year also encountered an unprecedented winter

Among them, there are many restaurants that accompanied us to grow up

McDonald's founder Ray Crocker once said

"If not real estate, just fast food

McDonald's closed early "

Different from McDonald's

Many restaurants that are serious about diningStart to downsize

The following fast food chains

Will gradually disappear from your door...


Pizza Hut Pizza Hut

Year of establishment: 1958
Expected to close: 500 stores



Speaking of Pizza Hut

Should evoke childhood memories of many friends

Birthday or get good grades

A "luxury" Pizza Hut

It ’s really super happy



Pizza Hut was in Kansas in 1958

A pizzeria

It has a history of more than 60 years

18,431 restaurants worldwide



But the team believes everyone has found out

American Pizza Hut

Seems to be with us from snacks to big

The difference is big...more than a little bit

Whether domestic Pizza Hut is thick or thin

Whether it's a snack or a drink

It ’s so delicious.


Country of origin: Pizza Hut

Can't help disappointing

After all, the competition for local food is really big

Whether it's a small store or a chain

Too many delicious pizzas

"Not delicious enough" and single taste

Probably the reason for the large number of stores.



Burger King

Year of establishment: 1953
Expected to close: 250 stores



In 61 countries and regions around the world

Burger King with more than 11,220 branches

Big burger, grilled instead of fried

Various creative burger dishes

You must have eaten ~



Remember the all-black burger?

A hurricane of "black cuisine" blew across the globe in 2014

And every time the World Cup

Burger King will launch

Signature Hamburgers for various teams

And last year's faux meat burgers were all the rage.


It tastes good and the creativity is good

but!!!!!

Look around the nation's flagship beef burger restaurants

East America has shack shake 叱咤

In & Out everywhere in the west

Burger Kin doesn't seem to find the right market position

And fall into a mess of frequent CEO changes

Has led to the closure of a large number of stores


Subway Subway

Year of establishment: 1965
Expected to close: 1k + stores



Which global restaurant chain has the most stores?

I believe many people will guess it is McDonald's or KFC

But the correct answer is Subway.



 But in 2018 alone in the United States

Closed more than 1100 stores

There are currently less than 25000 stores in the United States

May be a difference in culture and taste

Subway has opened its first store in China in 1995

Doesn't seem to make Chinese love sandwiches

And in the United States, it seems to be becoming less and less marketable.



And only a small amount of fitness

People who want to count calories accurately

Will recognize Subway's low-calorie sandwiches

However, the carbonated soda and high sugar cookies in the store

And potato chips

It also makes people who do n’t understand Subway taste healthy



But such a massive reduction in stores

I believe it is a franchise way to quickly open a large number of stores

Leading to uneven store quality

A lot of negative reports such as

"Use expired bread"

"Plug the thermometer directly into the meatballs"

It's also worrying about its survival


Starbucks

Year of establishment: 1971
Expected to close: 150 stores



A cup of star dad every day

Seems to be the habit of many friends

Covers 75 countries worldwide

Up to 3w branches

Long queues of Starbucks every day

Actually also encountered a "close shop boom"? ? ?



Starbucks currently has about 1.4 stores in the U.S.

2019 expansion targets focus on suburbs or townships

But because of rising wages and other regulations

Making Starbucks hard to come by

More branches will be closed in those areas



Although cold brew

Various Frappuccino are good for everyone

But when is the American star father

Can we learn from our country?

Sell ​​some nice cups please! !! !!


Carl's Jr.

Year of establishment: 1941
Expected to close: 150 stores



Carl's Jr. is created by Carl Karcher

Founded with his wife in 1941

This national chain started with a hot dog cart

Although the taste and service are very stable

39 stores in 3664 countries

But they are not immune to closing the branch



As an old shop

No innovation and new marketing

Turnover is inevitable

CEO Jason Markle since 2017

Prosecuted for discriminating against older employees

Wrong marketing ad

(Do n’t talk about it, everyone sees the picture)

Led to a more severe decline in turnover



But this burger can still try

Fire roast beef burger series

Includes BBQ Bacon Fort

More than ten kinds of Mexican hot fort

All kinds of low-carb burgers and milkshakes are really good


Steak'n Shake

Year of establishment: 1934
Expected to close: 100+ stores



Steak'n Shake was born in Illinois

1.1 million “steak burgers” sold each year

6000 million cups of milkshake

This beautiful number can see this home

Popularity of steak + milkshake stores



In the midst of a big shutdown of restaurants in 2019

Steak'n Shake said

Closing 103 rooms is only temporary

But high costs and declining turnover

Let this old shop decide to cut down on its signature cherry milkshake

Can save $ 100 million per year


IHOP

Year of establishment: 1958
Expected to close: 40 stores



Friends who like American breakfast

I'm no stranger to IHOP

This Waffle and Pancake breakfast shop

Established in Los Angeles in 1958



But compared to some fine Brunch restaurants

Such a traditional breakfast room

There is really no competitive advantage

Tastes so good, creative

It ’s understandable that foodies do n’t want to go


Applebee's

Year of establishment: 1980
Expected to close: 500 stores



Applebee's is the sister restaurant of IHOP

Like IHOP, Applebee announces

Dozens of underperforming stores will be closed

15 restaurants in 1,830 countries



In 2016, Applebee's launched

So-called "Comprehensive Business Transformation"

Install grills in more than 2000 stores

But it seems that everyone is not paying for this "new model"

And not cheap dishes

And simple dining environment

And ordinary taste is not directly proportional

Want to try freshly grilled American steak

Experience the most local flavor

You can go to Applebee's to experience a wave

Have to say 👆 these restaurants

There are also some delicious items.such as:

Burger King’s French fries, Subway’s tuna sandwich, Carl’s Jr beef burger

Do these chains have items you like?

Welcome to eat and leave a message to recommend

Everyone can go to the store in front of the store before closing it.

I will miss it if I ca n’t eat it in the future ~~~
