Burger King has already announced earlier this year it is closing 300 to 400 stores across the country. The most recent in Jacksonville, Florida, and in Georgia and Alabama, where the owner of 172 units died in 2022. Some of those stores are up for bid to new investors, many have closed.

According to recent reports, Burger King is experiencing more restaurant closures, with the latest ones occurring in Florida, New York, and Nebraska. In March, franchisees announced the closure of 26 stores in Michigan, and in April, an additional 27 closures were announced across seven states, including Nebraska. Notably, the closed locations in Nebraska had been operating for at least 40 years and were managed by the same franchisee who closed 27 stores earlier this year. It is anticipated that the closed Burger King in Long Island, New York, will be replaced by a McDonald's. Burger King has not responded to these closure announcements. In May, Burger King's parent company CEO, Joshua Kobza, shared plans to close up to 300 to 400 restaurants during the fiscal year, aiming to match the number of closures that occurred during the pandemic.

The closures in Michigan, Nebraska, and New York, combined with the announcement of potential 300 to 400 closures during the fiscal year, indicate a strategic move to streamline operations and shed underperforming locations.
