On January 21, 2003, Andrew Puzder, CEO and president of Hardee's Food Systems, Inc. stated, "We are distinguishing ourselves from the competition as the premium burger specialist among quick-service restaurants." But how much value can you really add to a hamburger? Clearly companies like Outback Steakhouse, Cracker Barrel, and Shoney's offer menu selections similar to Hardees' "Thickburger," but these restaurants set themselves apart by offering a casual dining atmosphere, a wide selection of entrées beyond hamburgers, and table service rather than order counters.
