(MCD) In April, Burger King said its owner, 3G Capital Inc., will get $1.4 billion to transfer the chain toJustice Holdings Ltd. (JUSH), a special-purpose acquisition company founded by Ackman.
The Kurdoglu family operates Burger King’s largest international franchisee, TAB Gida Industry & Trade Co., which has more than 450 stores in Turkey. Cartesian Capital is based in New York.
Burger King has more than 12,500 restaurants worldwide, of which about 90 percent are franchised.
