Burgerville, USA is a privately held American restaurant chain in Oregon and southwest Washington, owned by The Holland Inc. As the chain's name suggests, Burgerville's sandwich menu consists mostly of hamburgers, though it also offers chicken and turkey sandwiches, gardenburgers, and halibut fish and chips. Most Burgerville locations are located in the Portland metropolitan area.
   Reflecting its limited presence, the chain has used the slogan "Inconveniently located for most of America".
   The chain's most significant differentiation is in its use of local ingredients and natural ingredients, such as Tillamook Cheddar in its burgers, and locally grown strawberries in its milkshakes and sundaes. Throughout the year it offers seasonal items such as milkshakes made with hazelnuts, fresh pumpkins, fresh raspberries, eggnog, huckleberries, and blackberries, and side orders such as Walla Walla onion rings, sweet potato fries and Yukon Gold potatoes.

History

Burgerville was founded in 1961 by George Propstra in Vancouver, Washington.
   Burgerville uses 100% wind power for all of its restaurants and headquarters, and is the largest chain in America to do so. Burgerville uses only trans fat-free canola oil that's then transformed into biodiesel.
   As of August 2007, their slogan is, "Choose Fresh, Local, Sustainable. Choose Burgerville."
   In 2007, Burgerville was awarded with the "Better Burger" award at the 1st Annual Food Network Awards.

Locations

As of May 2007, there were 43 locations throughout Oregon and Washington.
   In 2005, the company announced plans to start an expansion into the areas of Seattle, Washington and Bend, Oregon, opening up to ten new restaurants. However, as of March 2007, those expansion plans have not been started yet.
   On major highways leaving Burgerville's reach, there's usually a billboard resembling an overhead highway warning sign alerting drivers that there won't be another Burgerville location for approximately another 24,700 miles (39,750 km) (distance varies on the actual signs depending on location): The distance to the next Burgerville should you continue around the globe in that direction.
