Spoke with a vendor of Burger King this past weekend and it was said, BK is getting rid of the older management employees and replacing them with young, aggressive ones. The nature of BK’s business model is changing drastically, according to this vendor. Maybe all of this, moving to Canada/Tim Horton’s, is the start.
I don't understand it except from a tax standpoint: Wendy's owned Horton's for 11 years and there was no synergy there, that BK thinks it can have a different outcome surprises me.
Yesterday's Miami Herald article describes Burger King operations would remain in Miami in a Tim Hortons deal.
Either way, it is hard to imagine many folks willing to make a move to Canada from sunny Miami, and no state income tax.
