Doesn't matter, Burger King still rules !

You´re from Germany, correct?...how successful is BK over there?

Pretty sure that McDonalds is the leader by a wide margin, but people still prefer the burgers from Burger King.

Having said that, there isn't really a third player in this business. At least in France you have also a Quick (which still doesn't come close to the quality of McD and BK).

 

Edit:

McDonalds: ~1400 stores
BurgerKing: ~700 stores

Interesting, from what I could find BK is at 1000~ here and McDonalds at 1200. I truly think Subway has to be the most popular here though, there's one every street corner I swear.

Edit - Ya thought so, Subway overtook Mcdonalds in 2008, 1300 stores, with over 2000 stores by 2010, crazy! - http://www.telegraph.co.uk/finance/newsbysector/retailandconsumer/3410294/How-Subway-overtook-McDonalds.html

Only 600 Subway stores here.
