Earlier this week, a story ran in the Financial Times Deutschland about Burger King's plans to file an IPO within the next two years. This article from Nation's Restaurant News confirms that story and adds that Burger King's promotion of Betty Ann Blandon to vice president audit and risk management is part of the company's public offering vision. According to the president of Burger King North America, Ms. Blandon has been "instrumental in our Sarbanes-Oxley Readiness Program in anticipation of becoming a public company."
