Burger King is pursuing growth through new restaurant openings in multiple regions. In France, the company is preparing to open a new location in Baud in December, supported by a recruitment campaign and job dating events.

In Japan, the company is expanding its footprint with two new branches scheduled for late October 2026: the Soyora Tsukuba Gakuen-no-mori branch in Ibaraki Prefecture and the Shimomaruko Ekimae branch in Tokyo. These openings will bring the total store count in Japan to 385, as part of a broader strategy to reach 600 stores nationwide by the end of 2028.
