Burger King has been in the restaurant business for over thirty years, and during that time, it has acquired a number of different brands, including Tim Hortons. The two brands are operated as separate entities, with Burger King owning the majority of Tim Hortons’ shares.
However, the two brands have been combined in some markets, and there is speculation that Burger King may eventually purchase all of Tim Hortons’ shares. If that happens, it would make Burger King the largest restaurant operator in the world.
