INTRODUCTION
Competitive Foods is one of Australia's largest privately held businesses that manages and operates the Hungry Jacks franchise of restaurants in Australia. When Burger King decided to expand its operations into Australia, it found that its business name was already trademarked by a man running a small takeaway food shop. In consequence, the Australian franchisee, Jack Cowin, was provided by Burger King with a list of possible alternative names that Australian Burger King restaurants could be branded as. These names were derived from pre-existing trademarks already registered by Burger King and Pillsbury (which was, at that time, the parent company of Burger King). Cowin selected the branding Hungry Jack's, echoing his name and sentiment. 'Hungry Jacks'.
HISTORY / BACKGROUND
1971 - The first Australian franchise of the Burger King Corporation, established in Perth and was branded as Hungry Jack's.
1972 - First South Australian restaurant opened.
1981 - First New South Wales restaurant opened.
1986 - Entered Victoria by purchasing 11 failing Australian Wendy's Old Fashioned Hamburgers locations and rebranding them under the Hungry Jack's name.
1990 - There were changes to the franchise agreement which allowed Competitive Foods to franchise Hungry Jack's restaurants as independent businesses.
1996 to 2001 - When the existing Australian registered trademark for Burger King lapsed in 1996, the American parent company wanted Cowin to change the Hungry Jack's outlets over to the Burger King name. Cowin resisted the change, but despite this Burger King proceeded between 1996 and 2003 to open more than seventy outlets in Australia under the Burger King name. As a result of Burger King's action, Hungry Jacks Pty Ltd began legal proceedings in Australia against the Burger King Corporation citing violation of the master franchising agreement. In 2001 the case was finally resolved in favour of Hungry Jacks.
2002 - Burger King Australia exited the country and sold a 51% share of its Australian restaurants to TPF, the company that operates Burger King in New Zealand.
2005 - TPF decided to exit the Australian market and sold its 51% share of the former Burger King sites to Hungry Jack's Pty Ltd.
- Introduced a breakfast menu in late 2005 in three states (Queensland, New South Wales, and Northern Territory).
2006 - Subsequently introduced a breakfast menu into the other states in October.
