MegaHamburger from Hesburger

Hesburger is a fast-food chain based in Turku, Finland. Today, it is the largest Finnish hamburger restaurant chain, with a larger presence in the Finnish market than U.S.-based McDonald's. With only 12 outlets in 1992, Hesburger expanded to over 200 restaurants in 60 towns across Finland over the following decade, absorbing rival chain Carrols in 2002. Hesburger has also expanded to international markets, opening outlets in Estonia (11), Germany (4) , Latvia (7) and Lithuania (7). There was briefly a Hesburger in Syria but it was closed as unprofitable.

Many Hesburger restaurants offer WiFi coverage, and some use RFID and other real-time commerce technologies to serve the customer.

There is also a Hesburger Hotel located in Finland's third largest urban centre, Turku. This Hesburger hotel has a 24 hour Hesburger restaurant on the ground floor of the hotel, which is also the reception of the hotel when checking in. The rooms of the hotel also offer free internet access.
