Restaurant Brands International, which owns Burger King and coffee-shop chain Tim Hortons, said it had agreed to purchase the rapidly growing company formally known as Popeyes Louisiana Kitchen for $79 per share.
Popeyes has more than 2,600 locations, about double what it had in 2008, and about 97% are franchises.
Restaurant Brands said it would seek to "continue developing the brand at an increasing pace" in the U.S. and foreign markets.

Love that chicken from pop-eyes!
Is it going to be Prince Popeyes now?
Not a booger king fan, the stores around here all suck. I hope Popeye's survives this...
The new Burger King off Civic Ave is fantastic....great service and clean! The one by Lowes....not so much, it needs a remodeling!
Popeye's chicken is the best since English's closed.
The Lowe's location does need updating but the staff is usually very good. I visit often.
Popeye's CRUSHES Fake KFC!
I just got some yesterday as a yearly thing. The taste has changed with the recipe since last year, and not for the better.
