McDonald's is one of the most iconic fast-food chains in the world. With over 36,000 restaurants in over 100 countries, McDonald's serves millions of customers every day. But how did McDonald's become so successful?
The story of McDonald's begins in 1940, when two brothers, Richard and Maurice McDonald, opened a drive-in restaurant in San Bernardino, California. The restaurant was called the Speedee Service System, and it featured a limited menu of hamburgers, cheeseburgers, french fries, and milkshakes.
The Speedee Service System was a success, and the McDonald brothers soon opened several more restaurants in the area. In 1954, they met Ray Kroc, a milkshake machine salesman who was impressed with their operation. Kroc convinced the McDonald brothers to let him franchise their restaurant concept, and he soon opened the first McDonald's franchise in Des Plaines, Illinois.
Kroc was a marketing genius, and he quickly expanded the McDonald's franchise across the United States. He also introduced several innovations to the McDonald's system, including the drive-thru window and the Happy Meal.
By the 1970s, McDonald's was the largest fast-food chain in the world. Kroc had turned a small drive-in restaurant into a global empire.
But McDonald's success has not come without controversy. The chain has been criticized for its unhealthy food, its low wages, and its environmental practices.
Despite the criticism, McDonald's remains one of the most popular fast-food chains in the world. The company's iconic golden arches are recognized around the globe, and its food is enjoyed by millions of people every day.

McDonald's also offers a variety of seasonal items, such as the Shamrock Shake and the McRib.
The McDonald's Franchise
McDonald's is a franchise-based company. This means that the majority of McDonald's restaurants are owned and operated by independent franchisees. Franchisees pay a fee to McDonald's for the right to use the McDonald's name and branding. They also agree to follow McDonald's operating standards.
