Click to skip ahead and jump to the <strong>5 fastest growing fast food chains</strong>.</p> \n<p>Fast food has been <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AONE.U\">one</a> of the most emerging industries in the past fifty years. In 2018, the industry was valued at $875 billion, up from $862 billion a year earlier. Even though the pandemic put a damper on the industry growth, it seems to be recovering nicely and is projected to reach more than $880 billion in 2021.</p> \n<p>Fast food restaurants, also known as quick-service restaurants, provide the service of mass-produced, readily-available food. This is in contrast with traditional dining, where food is usually made fresh and to-order, requiring a longer wait time at the expense of fresh meals. Fast food chains, as is evident by their name, focus on the speed at which a meal is delivered to the customer. However, this is not to say that they are forgoing other qualities of their products such as taste and quality.</p> \n<p>Historically, fast food was created for the average busy wage worker who needed a meal quicker than it would be available in a traditional restaurant setting. Thus, an alternative food service strategy was created, coined fast-food. Today fast food comes in many forms, but they all usually have one thing in common - speed.</p> \n<p>To achieve a fast delivery, the meals can be pre-cooked and are finished quickly once the order is placed. Other fast-food restaurant chains may not pre-cook entire meals, but use frozen or pre-prepared ingredients which may be quickly assembled at a customer’s order. This method is employed by some of the fastest growing fast food chains such as <strong>McDonald's Corp (NYSE:MCD)</strong> and <strong><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/QSR\">Restaurant Brands International Inc</a> (NYSE:QSR)</strong> - owned Burger King.</p> \n<p>Even though as a major modern industry fast food hasn't been around that long (for around a century), the concept itself has been around since the Ancient Rome. The Romans were recorded to purchase their food from food vendors on the street. Street food was also a popular attraction in the Middle Ages where cooked meals were sold to travelers and the poor. Since the late 1800s, fast food has been around in Britain in the from of fish and chips shops. The hamburger, an icon in the world of fast food, was a creation originating in medieval Europe.</p> \n<p>However, fast food as we know it in the form of affordable drive-throughs and greasy paper bags was popularized in the United States in the 1950s. A White Castle outlet opened in 1921, is considered to be the first fast food restaurant in the US (and the world). White Castle has eventually grown into a chain with more than 370 locations across the US, but it was overshadowed greatly by other chains such as McDonald's Corp (NYSE:MCD) and KFC (owned by <strong>Yum! Brands, Inc. (NYSE:YUM</strong>)), both of which are still among the fastest growing fast food chains.</p> \n<p>Today fast food is an American staple, with more than 200 people in the US being served a hamburger every second every day. The number of outlets serving fast food has risen at a rapid rate, from around 75,000 locations in 1972 to more than 200,000 in 2018.</p> \n<p>However, fast food has also gained somewhat of a bad reputation for the health risks associated with its consumption, with diseases such as high cholesterol, cardiovascular disease, insulin resistance, and even depression being associated with it. Many fast food products also tend to be high in saturated fat, sodium, sugar, and calories, all which contribute to obesity and a lower mortality. To combat these issues, many fast food chains have introduced vegan, low-fat, low-calorie alternatives in their menus, but the sales for these menu items have not been as high.</p> \n<p>Some of the fastest growing fast food chains usually follow a franchise model, but many also own certain locations. B<span>oth models operate with standardized ingredients and menus across most locations. Globalization in the past few decades has resulted in fast food chains being one of the most recognizable and employable businesses, with big names having thousands of outlets spread out in multiple countries around the world. So without further ado, let's take a look at the fastest growing fast food chains based on the number of locations opened in the last several years.&nbsp;</span></p> \n<h2><strong>15.

The company was founded in 1975 by Tony Tan Caktiong as an ice cream parlor in Cubao, Quezon City.

This resulted in the family shifting its branding towards fast food, and in 1978 the first Jollibee outlet was born. Since then the company has enjoyed rapid growth, opening locations all over Philippines as well as neighboring countries of South East Asia. The growth of the brand has made the founder, who was the son of poor Chinese immigrants, into a billionaire.
