Two QDR burger chains are in the top five: McDonald’s (#1) and Burger King (#4). The company also reported on how much brands grew sales: Burger King increased sales by 17%, Whataburger by 14.5%, Carl’s Jr. by 5% and Culver’s by 25.3%.The spike in sales shows the result of things returning to normal post-pandemic.

The global fast food industry was valued at $702.8 billion last year, and the burgers/sandwiches segment accounted for about 43% of that. The market is forecasted to grow to $964.6 billion by 2030 with a CAGR of 4%.&nbsp;Read the full article&nbsp;<a href="https://www.franchisetimes.com/franchise_news/qsr-burger-chains-ignite-growth-as-pandemic-rebound-continues/article_751319f0-4a6b-11ed-b794-5bed88e2644d.html?utm_source=1851franchise.com&utm_medium=article&utm_campaign=new-data-shows-qsr-burger-segment-far-surpassing-other-categories-in-growth-2720012" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">here</a> at FranchiseTimes.com.
