Burgeranch

[3] The first Burgeranch in Israel opened in 1972 on Ben Yehuda Street in Tel Aviv by Barry Scop and Ron Lapid.

One scholar connected the rise of Burgerranch, along with Burger King and McDonalds, to the Americanization of Israeli society.

[5] In 1992, when Burger King entered the Israeli market, it discussed a deal with Burgeranch but the talks failed.

In 2005, after Burger King declared bankruptcy – following a series of other American-based companies such as Starbucks, Wendy's, and Dunkin' Donuts that had struggled to succeed in the Israeli market[4] – it was purchased by Orgad Holdings.

The proposed sale failed and Burger King was relaunched in Israel, without ties to Burgeranch, in December 2015.

[9] This is primarily for business reasons, because certified kosher restaurants are required to close on Saturdays and Jewish holidays.
