Our teams continue to demonstrate the leadership and dedication to making Heartland
a leading company. Heartland has won two awards that demonstrate their commitment
and success, not just within the Burger King System, but within the entire industry:
Heartland Food Corp. was presented Burger King’s “Brand Leadership Award”. This
award is presented to one Franchisee each year that has demonstrated superior operations,
brand reimaging, and who has demonstrated a leadership role within the Burger King
brand.
Heartland Food Corp., was named by Nation's Restaurant News, the food industry's
leading trade magazine, as its "2006 Franchisee Star Award". This equates to being
named "Best in Industry" among franchisees of U.S. restaurant chains. In order to
be considered, franchisee must demonstrate exemplary standards in the following
areas: outstanding growth in sales; customer growth and profitability; operational
excellence; top quality food and service success; a respectful workplace culture
and a commitment to the local communities in which they operate. Not only has Heartland
Food Corp averaged double-digit sales growth since the company began in 2003, but
it excelled in each of the criteria, providing its employees a respectful, drug-
and harassment-free work environment while constantly training for employee career
development from within. As a community supporter, HFC's individual Burger Kings
work primarily with local schools by rewarding student achievement and attendance,
and providing fundraising opportunities.
Heartland continues to remain true to their original, simple goals: “Strive every
day to make a positive impact on our employees’ lives by creating and maintaining
a positive workplace culture; and to do our best to earn the loyalty of our customers,
giving them a reason to return”
