A Beefed-Up Kitchen Experience with a Side of Operations
What did we do?
Put the flame-grill front and center at a redesigned Burger King restaurant
Executed extensive primary research in our in-house Retail Theater
Used consumer insights gathered to design the Kitchen Theatre and ensured design met operations parameters
Developed a VR experience that allowed franchisees to see the new kitchen from three different viewpoints – queuing, prep area and drive-thru
Can we get ketchup with that?
