It really hard to choose who is my favorite a lot of thems is very good foods .70 % of the fast food restaurant that show on video is my favorite. 🙂🙂🙂🍔🍔🍟🍟🍕🍕🍕🌮🌮🌯🌯🍩🍩🍩🍦🍦🥓🥓mmmmmm foood restaurants.
If you compare in Puerto Rico alone (3500 sq. mi. or so) there were in 2017 (before Hurricane María) 120-130 Mc Donald's and BK's, but ~ 240 Subways (those are in 2021 barely above 200). So it CAN happen. And in some places Starbucks can be as abundant as Subways.
@xxtine Yeah and alot of times subway will put i buildings that are just big enough for the food line. and because of that size they will put multiple subways in a town. My home town wasn't that big, but we had 3 subways, one of them being in walmart. no other restaurant had more then one in our town
According to McDonald's own site, they only had 1 store in 1954 and didn't start adding franchises until after 1955. This chart has them at 358 locations in 1950. It has me questioning all these videos now.
... that's because they weren't known as Starbucks until around 1998. Before this (you may have heard of this name) they were known as 'The Seattle Coffee Company'. Evidently it's not as succinct as Starbucks, which is probably why the name was changed. It was at this point that the whole 'mega coffee chain' thing started to take off outside of America. This was especially noticeable in the UK where I'm from. In the UK we have big domestic rivals to Starbucks - Costa, and also Cafe Nero.....both of which are huge in the UK, and have held their own against Starbucks. Very surprised Starbucks had yet to overtake McDonald's in the US, as it overtook McDonald's here in the UK many years ago. It's been more successful than McDonald's (in the UK) for over a decade now.
@@starmc26 The combination of the enormous clout that supermarkets now have in the British high street, coupled with the strongly established bug coffee chains has seen a huge chunk taken out of McDonald's profits, here in the UK. Domestically, don't underestimate the power of Tesco - they have pushed McDonald's back for sure. I can't speak for the US, only what's happened here in the UK.
As I’m not American I don’t know if I should feel surprised or not that Subway overtook McDonald’s, but looking at my country (Australia) we have heaps more subway outlets than McDonald’s outlets and this is because Subway expanded into small towns of like 1,000 or 2,000. There’s even a drive thru subway in a town of 700 people about 2 hours from where I live.
@@alkdjfhgks1919 the original owners were swindled out of thier own company by ray croc " the founder" of mcds. Mcds isn't even a fast food company anymore. It's a real estate company.

It should be noted too that an average Subway serves far fewer customers than an average McDonald’s, so even though Subway has more total locations, their sales are probably much lower. And they’ve become very over saturated with stores cannibalizing sales from one another. It’s started to decline pretty significantly.

One sunny afternoon, old man McDonald and his friend Orange Julius were sitting around in their pizza hut playing dominos when they decided to go out and get something to eat. They took the subway downtown and went into their favorite Mexican restaurant. They rang the taco bell for service, and Wendy the cashier promptly appeared. She informed the duo, that unfortunately, the restaurant had just run-out of burritos, but some excellent fried chickens had just been flown-in from Kentucky. "Fantasic!" exclaimed old man McDonald, "how much do they cost?" "They're five bucks apiece," Wendy replied. "Oh no," old man McDonald said sadly, " I don't have that much cash on hand. Can I pay with credit?" "No," Wendy explained, "we only accept cash." At just that moment their friend the burger king, who lives on the sun, teleported into the restaurant and said, "Don't worry friends, I have a pocket full of star-bucks!"
@@michaelv3340 Ah hah! I thought it seemed familiar, but I was pretty sure I'd never seen any restaurants. Now 'Orange Julius' is the only one I don't think I've ever seen.
Yes, Subway surpassed McDonald's in restaurants because they don't need to cook everything making their restaurant size smaller and able to fit in more places like plazas and inside Walmarts
It is rather impressive that McDonalds had 358 locations in January of 1950. Considering the fact that the franchise did not get founded until 1955 by Ray Crock with 9 locations.

KFC at my city closed for a year or 2 (Maybe even 3) Something happened with raw chicken or the chicken machine wasn't working, maybe I forgot now cuz it's been open back for awhile now.
Subway had probably the best fast food marketing campaign in history. They were actually able to convince people that their sandwiches were healthy. One of my old co-workers believe that getting a meatball sub twice a week was MUCH better for his health than getting a BigMac twice a week.
@@peterkovach8655 eh say what ya want about what Jared turned into to or got convicted of, but he's probably the 2nd most recognizable fast food mascot behind Ronald McDonald. And that was before everyone knew him for being a pedo.
Fun fact: KFC actually didn't start in Kentucky, it started in Utah. Col. Sanders was from Kentucky and had a restaurant there, but the KFC name didn't exist yet. After meeting Pete Harman at a restaurant convention, he introduced Harman to his fried chicken recipe. Harman began selling it in his own restaurant, referring it to as "Kentucky Fried Chicken," which he said was "Finger lickin' good." It was so popular, Sanders began licensing the name and recipe all across the country.
Fun fact: KFC sued Sanders because he trashed their food in interviews because they changed some of the recipes. He also traveled around to locations, walked in, walked behind the counter and started making the chicken himself to teach employees proper way to make it, even though he was just a spokesman and face of the business
I worked for Starbuck in 1988 we were ONLY the 33rd Starbucks in the world when we opened in 1988 in Bellevue, WA . In fact, I don't believe Starbuck expanded outside of Washington state until 1991. If the Starbuck numbers are WAY out of line I now question ALL other numbers.
It's not that amazing. At the end of each year he puts in the restaurant chains with the highest numbers. Then has a computer count up to that number and the bar graphic slides accordingly. He doesn't go month to month like he should
I have been enjoying and sharing these data time-lapses but now question their creditably. McDonald’s is shown with 358 Franchises in 1950 Jan but Ray Kroc started McDonald’s as we know it today in 1955 April. Even when taking into account the original Dick and Mac McDonald’s, they had 14 franchises in 1948. Please help clarify the discrepancy.
@@Fordry They were just a local Seattle chain in the early 80s and we only considered the Pike Place store as real. Things went south as they expanded since the hand picked, small batch ethos of the original couldn't be replicated on the large scale they've become. I used to love their coffee and now I despise it.

The reason Subway is on the top is because you only need chilled buffet servers/display and a microwave and a couple of people to run a Subway. The other franchises on the list such as KFC and McDonald's need much more capital and equipment and an army of workers to run even the smallest shop in the chain.
I believe that it was incredibly easy to open a Subway Franchise. I think about 50-100K could do it back in the 90's and they handed the franchise licenses out like candy. They started out in mini-malls where rent was cheap, so a lot of entrepreneurial types got into it.
I wonder if the $5 footlongs gave subway the boost to become so popular tho, since their major growth started around the same time the first $5 foot long commercial came out
My only experiences there are super dry fried chicken and biscuits. Also, my parents have commented on them having poor hires. Id honestly prefer Popeyes.
Most of KFC restaurants are franchised and KFC take a cut off the profits from those Franchises. Since KFC was a had a lot of competition with other fast food restaurants so many choose different restaurants during that time. Resulting less people to profit form so many locations failed. Not until 2008 Economic crash, where many of KFC competition started to fail so KFC was able to gain back from it's downfall. IDK, that's the right reason but been watching a lot of Company Man videos so that's the best I can do.
Not sure what exactly they're measuring, but Subway has a very low startup cost compared to other franchises. They also do. not regulate their stores like McDs does.
Now its incredibly popular in Japan a Christmas thing that started there was buying KFC except you need to pre order your KFC for Christmas generally a month in advance
Some of these numbers appear to be WILDLY inaccurate. Even just looking at Starbucks, they had 17 locations in 1987, while this video states around 5,000. Starbucks didn't have 5,000 locations until sometime after the year 2000.
This list changed surprisingly little. I expected it to start with a bunch of restaurant chains I'd never heard of, but the only one I don't think I've ever seen was Orange Julius.
I find it fascinating that Orange Julius was the biggest franchise for like 20 years straight. I remember when McDonald's used to be in all of the Walmart stores and then in the late 2000s or early 2010s they switched them into Subways which kinda symbolizes the transition of power there.
I like how A&W was like, hey I made it on the board. Funny thing, they tried to beat the Quater Pounder by selling I believe a 1/3lb for the same price. But people didn't know math and thought it was less.

Orange Julius is the one that absolutely blows my mind here. To be number one into the 70s, to still be growing as of 2006, I can't even comprehend! It's a one-trick pony, smoothies... It was in malls only that I ever saw, I was never compelled to even try one. I'm sure they were great, but to think that into the 70s they were more popular than McDonald's?! Amazing.
Orange Julius was SO good. Their sausage sandwiches were great too. By the time I frequented them (80s-90s) they were basically in every shopping mall, but nowhere else. When the malls died, so did they as independent storefronts.
You hunt people down and force them to make your pizza for you. Similar to the greatest game but with pizza. Pretty fun. You win prizes for how many people you can hunt down. I made this up.
I remember going to the mall and my brother getting an Orange Julius. I just thought it was a drink (milk + OJ), I didn't know if was a popular franchise.
I’ve never heard of Orange Julius. Was surprised to see it hold on so long before dropping off. I’m not surprised about Subway and it’s very quick rise. I love Subway and eat there often.
You mean the Philippines they won't do well in countries with no Filipinos I mean really spaghetti that won't do well many countries already produce similar products or even better then jolibee
DQ should be bigger IMO. My local DQ is awesome, it's the only place where the workers don't leave for lunch, they eat there. The McD, KFC and other workers leave for lunch. I don't eat at Subway anymore since the bread and meat scandal.
I was really surpried that Subway surpased McD. Don't know about the Americas but in Croatia where I live it's like the ratio 95:5 in Mcdonalds favor ...

In Mexico we have: KFC, McDonalds, Pizza Hut, Domino's, Burger King, Wendy's, DQ, Subway. There used to be Taco Bell, but nobody liked Taco Bell and I have not seen a single Taco Bell in Mexico.
Wow, Starbucks has been around a lot longer than I thought. I never heard of them until around the turn of the millennium. I wonder if they started out as a regional chain and just expanded to my area at that time. That was what happened with Chick-Fil-A and Jack in the Box, both a lot more recently.
Starbucks started as one coffee shop at Pike Place Market in Seattle. If you have EVER watched an NFL, MLB or NBA (back in the day)...and now NHL Broadcast From Seattle you will always see video if people throwing and catching Salmon at Pike Place Market. That Starbucks is still there to this day. Too bad the owner sold the Super Sonics to OKC.
I grew up in rural Germany and the closest McDonald's was over 15 mi away when I was a kid and maybe twice a year there was a Happy Meal and twice a year a kid's birthday party celebrated there. Today there are a lot more fast food restaurants in my area, Donkin' Donots and Starbucks just in bigger cities here, and I just first visited them in my late 20s haha. For a long time Subway was my favorite, but I don't find the store here near me very hygienic (sticky floor, dirty tables) and so my favorite has been McDonald's for years. But Burger King and McDonald's are getting kind of boring. Kebab (here called Döner) is one of the most common street food in Germany.
I'm in the United States, but at the time I was growing up, out in the sticks of south-central Missouri during the 1970's, the two closest McDonald's locations were about an hour away in opposite directions, in Rolla and West Plains. But as of around 1990 or so, they put one in in the small town I grew up close to (Houston, MO).
I do love A&W since I was in Canada. I miss it in Europe. Fun thing is, here in Germany nearby every McDonald's there is a Burger King. I am surprised there are so much less stores.
where i live burger king is considered pretty shitty. but i’ve had mcdonalds when i lived in germany, and your mcdonalds is vastly inferior to American/Canadian mcdonalds, while your burger king isnt half bad
When I came to Germany first time, I thought Burger King is a German name for McDonalds (Ok, I was from USSR, so not very versed in brands, but I just saw McDonalds in US, and Burger King in Berlin looked identical besides the name)
This video is interesting, but has some inaccuracies. Some of the companies shown at the start didn't exist yet in 1950, let alone have numerous locations.
There is a subway at every truck stop, nearly every Walmart, almost every gas station, every small town. But I never knew it was bigger than McDonald's.
I'm actually shocked that Orange Julius was once the USA's largest food franchisor. I only see OJ locations in NYC now, and although I spent many years as a trucker, I don't recall seeing Orange Julius places anywhere else.
The early Starbucks numbers seem really suspect. First - like others here have said: I don't even remember ever hearing about them until the late 90's. Admittedly, that's pretty meaningless. I'm not too familiar with Orange Julius, either (although I do remember seeing them at the mall as a child in the 70s). Secondly, though - their Wikipedia-article says the following in their 'history' section: 1.) "By 1986, the company operated six stores in Seattle and had only just begun to sell espresso coffee." 2.) "By 1989, 46 Starbucks stores existed" 3.) "In June 1992, at the time of its initial public offering, Starbucks had 140 outlets" But according to this vid, they already had 707 locations in 1972 - just a year after their founding in 1971. I have a hard time believing that. Am I misunderstanding what the numbers mean? (I thought it meant number of locations)
Why is no one talking about KFC? Literally the most popular restaurant in the world for almost exactly 10 years. I never would have guessed that OR that comeback they had. Peaking at 9400 in 1991 with a steady decline to 5100 until 2008. Then a gigantic comeback to over double what their previous peak was in 2020. Truly amazing, love me some KFC
I have been enjoying and sharing these data time-lapses but now will question their accuracy going forward. McDonalds is shown with 358 franchises in 1950 Jan, but Ray Kroc started McDonalds as we know it today in 1955 April. Even when taking into account the original Dick and Mac McDonalds, they only sold 14 franchises. Please clarify.
Thank you for speaking up. I have wondered in other videos about the accuracy of the data collected. Your mentioning McDonald's got me to look up Starbucks on Wikipedia and I don't see anything like those early numbers on that page.
I worked for Starbuck in 1988 we were ONLY the 33rd Starbucks in the world when we opened in 1988 in Bellevue, WA . In fact, I don't believe Starbuck expanded outside of Washington state until 1991. If the Starbuck numbers are WAY out of line I now question ALL other numbers.

If you order a smoothie at dairy queen you might see its logo on the cup
It was the most famous food franchise in North America back in the 60s nowadays it's dead
Must be young, they were big for awhile but kind of disappeared. Seriously good smoothies
The best smoothies money can buy lol. I had no idea they were so old tho.
Usually in malls. they had the best smoothies.
When I tell you my jaw actually dropped when Subway surpassed McDonald's *and actually held that spot.* That, I did not expect
If you compare in Puerto Rico alone (3500 sq. mi. or so) there were in 2017 (before Hurricane María) 120-130 Mc Donald's and BK's, but ~ 240 Subways (those are in 2021 barely above 200).
So it CAN happen. And in some places Starbucks can be as abundant as Subways.
its around the time Walmart dropped McDonalds and picked up Subway as a restaurant inside their stores, I'm pretty sure. so it makes sense
The concept of „making“ your own food is fucking cool
Even Jared couldn't take that away.
@xxtine Yeah and alot of times subway will put i buildings that are just big enough for the food line. and because of that size they will put multiple subways in a town.

Subway had probably the best fast food marketing campaign in history. They were actually able to convince people that their sandwiches were healthy. One of my old co-workers believe that getting a meatball sub twice a week was MUCH better for his health than getting a BigMac twice a week.
That was quickly followed by perhaps the worst marketing campaign in fast food history....

orange julius was on the list for nearly 60 years. that is what surprised me the most. I knew all the big name places would be there.
Fun fact: KFC actually didn't start in Kentucky, it started in Utah. Col. Sanders was from Kentucky and had a restaurant there, but the KFC name didn't exist yet. After meeting Pete Harman at a restaurant convention, he introduced Harman to his fried chicken recipe. Harman began selling it in his own restaurant, referring it to as "Kentucky Fried Chicken," which he said was "Finger lickin' good." It was so popular, Sanders began licensing the name and recipe all across the country.
And boy did he.
He dressed like a plantation slave owner.
Not long afterwards they started charging $10 for two pieces of anorexic chicken and I've never been back since....
Fun fact: KFC sued Sanders because he trashed their food in interviews because they changed some of the recipes. He also traveled around to locations, walked in, walked behind the counter and started making the chicken himself to teach employees proper way to make it, even though he was just a spokesman and face of the business
My first job was at KFC and we had a plastic statue of Col. Sanders in our lobby. It didn't last very long.
That's why I see Subway everywhere.

I worked for Starbuck in 1988 we were ONLY the 33rd Starbucks in the world when we opened in 1988 in Bellevue, WA . In fact, I don't believe Starbuck expanded outside of Washington state until 1991. If the Starbuck numbers are WAY out of line I now question ALL other numbers.
It's not that amazing. At the end of each year he puts in the restaurant chains with the highest numbers. Then has a computer count up to that number and the bar graphic slides accordingly. He doesn't go month to month like he should
I have been enjoying and sharing these data time-lapses but now question their creditably. McDonald’s is shown with 358 Franchises in 1950 Jan but Ray Kroc started McDonald’s as we know it today in 1955 April. Even when taking into account the original Dick and Mac McDonald’s, they had 14 franchises in 1948. Please help clarify the discrepancy.
A lot of the data in this had me scratching my head.
Starbucks popping up with hundreds of locations in the 70s is completely wrong.
I thought dick and mac only had 6 locations in total before Ray Kroc stole the company. Guess all the movies are wrong??
I was going to ask what the number meant. Does it mean number of franchises, or $ sales, or what?
@@Fordry They were just a local Seattle chain in the early 80s and we only considered the Pike Place store as real.

This is locations not actual revenue:
McDonald's: $37 billion in system-wide U.S. sales.
Starbucks: $13 billion in system-wide U.S. sales.
Subway: $10.8 billion in system-wide U.S. sales.
Burger King: $10 billion in system-wide U.S. sales.
Taco Bell: $9.8 billion in system-wide U.S. sales.
The reason Subway is on the top is because you only need chilled buffet servers/display and a microwave and a couple of people to run a Subway. The other franchises on the list such as KFC and McDonald's need much more capital and equipment and an army of workers to run even the smallest shop in the chain.
They're also big because people think it's a healthy option to the others, when often (cough cough footlong meatball) they're not.

I believe that it was incredibly easy to open a Subway Franchise. I think about 50-100K could do it back in the 90's and they handed the franchise licenses out like candy. They started out in mini-malls where rent was cheap, so a lot of entrepreneurial types got into it.
Still about 100k nowadays
I know a few people that bought subway franchises just so they could use the profit to fund other businesses that they wanted to go into originally.
There was 3 in the tiny small town I grew up in!!
I wonder if the $5 footlongs gave subway the boost to become so popular tho, since their major growth started around the same time the first $5 foot long commercial came out
@@youngnutsack17 I remember back in the 90's, scoring a few rare coupons for buy-one get-one $5 subs. That was the best.

What happened to KFC from 1991 to 2009 can anybody explain?
My only experiences there are super dry fried chicken and biscuits. Also, my parents have commented on them having poor hires. Id honestly prefer Popeyes.
Most of KFC restaurants are franchised and KFC take a cut off the profits from those Franchises. Since KFC was a had a lot of competition with other fast food restaurants so many choose different restaurants during that time. Resulting less people to profit form so many locations failed. Not until 2008 Economic crash, where many of KFC competition started to fail so KFC was able to gain back from it's downfall. IDK, that's the right reason but been watching a lot of Company Man videos so that's the best I can do.
ummm no😂
They started losing money and had to sell some of their eateries
Well their food is good but it's still fast food, however chic fil a is the best even tho they're not necessarily fried chicken
Subway? There is rarely any line ups when i go there
Asian markets. There huge in many Asian markets.
Not sure what exactly they're measuring, but Subway has a very low startup cost compared to other franchises. They also do. not regulate their stores like McDs does.
Karen Sieradski this is probably based on the amount of locations
Its in locations and honestly i really like subway
Thats because its in store counts and also subway has had a big decline over the past few years causing them to shut down thousands of locations

I find it fascinating that Orange Julius was the biggest franchise for like 20 years straight. I remember when McDonald's used to be in all of the Walmart stores and then in the late 2000s or early 2010s they switched them into Subways which kinda symbolizes the transition of power there.
Great point!
It also shows that people would rather eat pork and cake (Subway bread is sugar cake) instead of 100% beef with regular bread.

Orange Julius is the one that absolutely blows my mind here. To be number one into the 70s, to still be growing as of 2006, I can't even comprehend! It's a one-trick pony, smoothies... It was in malls only that I ever saw, I was never compelled to even try one. I'm sure they were great, but to think that into the 70s they were more popular than McDonald's?! Amazing.
Orange Julius was SO good. Their sausage sandwiches were great too. By the time I frequented them (80s-90s) they were basically in every shopping mall, but nowhere else. When the malls died, so did they as independent storefronts.
6:34 I remember at the time people thought Jared getting arrested would hurt Subway but they stayed strong.

Starbucks started as one coffee shop at Pike Place Market in Seattle.

That Starbucks is still there to this day. Too bad the owner sold the Super Sonics to OKC.
Yogurt land, Panera bread, El pollo loco, red mango, tgif are amazing
I think you’re right. It was Seattle coffee company or something similar.
me too. Also, I remember going to Jack in the Box as a kid, but there hasn't been one in my area since probably the 70s.
I grew up in rural Germany and the closest McDonald's was over 15 mi away when I was a kid and maybe twice a year there was a Happy Meal and twice a year a kid's birthday party celebrated there. Today there are a lot more fast food restaurants in my area, Donkin' Donots and Starbucks just in bigger cities here, and I just first visited them in my late 20s haha. For a long time Subway was my favorite, but I don't find the store here near me very hygienic (sticky floor, dirty tables) and so my favorite has been McDonald's for years. But Burger King and McDonald's are getting kind of boring. Kebab (here called Döner) is one of the most common street food in Germany.
I'm in the United States, but at the time I was growing up, out in the sticks of south-central Missouri during the 1970's, the two closest McDonald's locations were about an hour away in opposite directions, in Rolla and West Plains. But as of around 1990 or so, they put one in in the small town I grew up close to (Houston, MO).
I do love A&W since I was in Canada. I miss it in Europe.
Fun thing is, here in Germany nearby every McDonald's there is a Burger King. I am surprised there are so much less stores.
where i live burger king is considered pretty shitty. but i’ve had mcdonalds when i lived in germany, and your mcdonalds is vastly inferior to American/Canadian mcdonalds, while your burger king isnt half bad
When I came to Germany first time, I thought Burger King is a German name for McDonalds (Ok, I was from USSR, so not very versed in brands, but I just saw McDonalds in US, and Burger King in Berlin looked identical besides the name)
Subway , I just say , has gotten better these days

There is a subway at every truck stop, nearly every Walmart, almost every gas station, every small town. But I never knew it was bigger than McDonald's.
I'm actually shocked that Orange Julius was once the USA's largest food franchisor. I only see OJ locations in NYC now, and although I spent many years as a trucker, I don't recall seeing Orange Julius places anywhere else.
They are in every mall in Canada, but I always thought it is fairly recent 'new age' brand
The early Starbucks numbers seem really suspect.
First - like others here have said: I don't even remember ever hearing about them until the late 90's. Admittedly, that's pretty meaningless. I'm not too familiar with Orange Julius, either (although I do remember seeing them at the mall as a child in the 70s).
Secondly, though - their Wikipedia-article says the following in their 'history' section:
1.) "By 1986, the company operated six stores in Seattle and had only just begun to sell espresso coffee."
2.) "By 1989, 46 Starbucks stores existed"
3.) "In June 1992, at the time of its initial public offering, Starbucks had 140 outlets"
But according to this vid, they already had 707 locations in 1972 - just a year after their founding in 1971.
I have a hard time believing that. Am I misunderstanding what the numbers mean? (I thought it meant number of locations)
Another one who thinks the US is the whole world.
