Pumper Nic esta en todo

Pumper Nic (or just Pumper) was a popular chain of fast-food restaurants in Argentina during the 1980s and 90's. It's currently considered a cult classic. Apparently from the German pumpernickel, a type of bread.

Its name and logo was a based upon Burger King's, before the latter started operating in Argentina. When Burger King and McDonald's started business in Argentina, Pumper had to change its logo and started losing money, eventually going bankrupt.

The franchise had a mascot, a green hippo called "NIC".
