RBD - Restaurant Brands

[CJ]

On the radio today Russell m said cals is going to be as big as KFC

WOW

Article in the Hearld said Carl's had a one week record of $180k. By comparison, my guess is BurgerFuel record would be in the $60k range with their top stores averaging in the high $30k per week. Not sure what McD/BK would do.

Pizzas is a race to the bottom. Have heard Dominos wants to increase/put in tables to increase their average order total. Not sure if that is what people want for pizzas.

In general, I see Carl's as a positive for RBD (not NZ and our obesity rates though).

Loved the quote from the company rep...."we are not the obesity police". What else could he say. Food looked good..ooh chile fries. It gives the dieticians and food analysts something to complain about..good advertising. Nothing quite so appealing as the "highest fat content burger" to pull in the punters. Wish they had one in Wellington..BK and MAc need some competition. Disclaimer 85 kg and holding an extra uneccessary 8kg but working on it. Still like an occasional FF treat though. Holding this long term and will continue to add in the dips (and relishes)

The paper today says its a done deal ( or a near certainty) that RBD to take over the Aussie KFC franchise. The current franchisee is not in Yums good books

Hope they held out for a good deal as helping settle a dispute

RBD with a 4 in front of the share price ...bring it on

Shudder.

The last time RBD went over to rescue Pizza Hut (another Yummy special), RBD came back with a bloody nose and after bleeding millions upon millions.

Only read the BIG HEADLINES

Only West Australia and Northern Territories, 40 stores

Current operator also deeply involved in Domino Pizza and Yum pissed off with that

Calls to RBD were not returned

Prob a figurement of some reporters imagination .....but could be tied in with direct flights to Perth from Chch commencing soon

But this time it 'will be different' - we learnt from our experiences and all that stuff
