Burger King Nigeria Targets Travelers with its 16th Store in MMA2

Burger King Nigeria, a leading Quick Service Restaurant (QSR) chain, marked a significant milestone with the opening of its first airport outlet at Muritala Muhammed Airport Terminal 2 (MMA2) in Lagos on August 30, 2024.

The expansion into the airport market is part of the brand’s strategic growth plan, aimed at enhancing convenience for its customers and tapping into the bustling travel sector.

The MMA2 outlet is strategically positioned to cater to the high traffic of travelers passing through one of Nigeria’s busiest airports, offering them a unique dining experience that blends Burger King’s global reputation for quality with local flavours.

“We are excited to bring our signature quality and convenience to the airport market,” said Rushdi Ibrahim, Managing Director and CEO of Allied Food Confectionery Services, the company behind Burger King Nigeria. “Our expansion journey has been remarkable, with 16 restaurants opened in just 33 months. We’re committed to bringing our brand to every corner of Nigeria.”

To celebrate the opening and drive customer engagement, Burger King Nigeria has partnered with Ibom Air for an exciting promotion.

Customers who spend 7,000 naira or more at the new MMA2 outlet will partake in a lucky dip, which offers an opportunity to win a domestic return ticket on Ibom Air.

Aniekan Essienette, Group Manager, Marketing and Communication for Ibom Air, expressed enthusiasm for the partnership, stating, “We’re happy to be associated with another valuable brand. This partnership aligns with our mission to provide exceptional customer experiences.”

“This partnership is a win-win for both brands,” added Lerato Makume, Marketing Director for Burger King Nigeria. “We want to reward our customers for their loyalty and enhance their travel experience.”

The introduction of the new outlet underscores Burger King Nigeria’s commitment to expanding its footprint and adapting to the needs of its diverse customer base.

By focusing on quality, convenience, and customer satisfaction, the brand is well on its way to becoming a dominant force in Nigeria’s QSR industry.
