McDonald’s

McDonald’s is one of the most famous fast food chains in the world. The company was founded in 1940 by brothers Richard and Maurice McDonald in San Bernardino, California. Originally started as a simple burger restaurant, the concept was later discovered by businessman Ray Kroc, who saw the potential of the business model and expanded it nationwide. In the 1950s, McDonald’s began granting franchise licences to accelerate the growth of the brand. Over the years, McDonald’s has expanded its menu selection and expanded its presence around the world, with thousands of restaurants in over 100 countries.
