- 3. 3 Background of McDonald’s Corporation McDonald’s was founded in California in 1940 by the brothers Richard and Maurice McDonald as a BBQ restaurant. It was one of many drive-ins popping up in California at the time. They rebranded the concept in 1948, focusing on burgers, shakes, potato chips, and pie, and later sold the franchise to Kroc. Ray Kroc opened the first McDonald’s franchise 58 years ago, on April 15, 1955, in Des Plaines, Illinois. Kroc, making his rounds as a milk shake mixer salesman, came across the McDonald brothers’ small hamburger shop in Southern California. The establishment was simple, serving only a few items: hamburgers, French fries, soft drinks, and milk shakes. These two brothers became one of Kroc’s best customers as they purchased several of his machines in his otherwise dying business. Kroc was curious and suggested that the brothers expand their presence. He offered his services as their agent. That was how the little restaurants with the bright yellow arches began. In 1961, Kroc brought out the McDonald Corporation for $2.7 million, and celebrated its10th anniversary with the first public stock offering at $22.50 per share in 1965. In the mid-1980s, McDonald operated more than 3,600 restaurants outside the United States. With the expansion of McDonald’s into many international markets, the company had become a symbol of globalization and the spread of the American way of life. McDonald’s restaurants are now located in 32 countries around the world. There are 7,778 restaurants at the year end. McDonald’s entered India in 1996, against the backdrop of a market that was hesitant to try fast food and was still dependent on the “tiffin” lunch boxes many lug to work. The big mac served in these cities made with lamb called the Maharaja Mac. The operating income numbers showed a reduction from 60 percent derived from United States in 1992 to 42.5 percent in 1997. After a long run of success, McDonald Corporation had become the world’s largest and most famous chain of hamburger fast food industry. The net worth of McDonald on 2014 was more than $95 billion.
- 4. 4 Recent Development McDonald’s had become the world’s leading quick-service restaurant brand due to the power of franchisees, the high quality and safety of supply and also the collaboration of employees. Currently, McDonald’s franchisees had opened more than 36,000 locations in the world. They were serving more than 100 countries and they served 69 million customers a day. Recently, McDonald’s Corporation were striving to achieve McDonald’s 2020 Corporate Social Responsibility & Sustainability Framework. McDonald’s 2020 CSR & Sustainability Framework was planned to generate measurable and positive impacts for society in order to position the company for the future. This framework included serving 100% more fruits, vegetables, low-fat dairy or whole grains in 9 of its top markets. McDonald’s Corporation were striving to achieve this goal in the end of 2015. Besides, this framework also included supporting sustainable beef, sourcing 100% of coffee, palm oil and fish that was verified to support sustainable production and increasing energy efficiency in company- owned restaurants. Furthermore, their aspiration was to develop the most environmentally efficient McDonald’s restaurants. Therefore, they were trying to procure 100% of fibre-based packaging. They were also trying to increase the recycle concept in every franchisee and minimizing the waste. In 4th May 2015, McDonald’s president and Chief Executive Officer Steve Easterbrook had announced the initial steps of the Company’s turnaround plan. It included a restructuring of McDonald’s worldwide business and financial updates. They planned to shape McDonald’s future as a modern and progressive burger company. In addition, they will restore growth under a new organization structure and ownership mixes designed to provide bigger focus on the customer, improve their operating fundamentals and drive a recommitment to running great restaurant. McDonald’s Corporation always put customers at first place of the consideration. Their goal was to create a favourite place for customers and create the way to eat and drink by serving core favourites such as French Fried, Big Mac and Chicken Mc Nuggets. They always practiced to provide good food and better customer service.
