How Burger King Survived Bankruptcy Twice

In 1957, a failing startup called Insta-Burger was drowning in debt, its equipment kept breaking down, and it was moments away from total bankruptcy. Yet, this exact disaster rose from the ashes to become Burger King—a multi-billion-dollar global empire operating in over 100 countries.
