Ronald McDonald Around the World

We've all heard of the McDonald's fast food restaurant, whether now if we are aware of it or not they seem to be everywhere and it's impossible but what exactly is the reason why we seem to be surrounded by these chain restaurant. The main reason is that McDonald's is part of Globalization and is known around the world from the united states where it first got it's start, all the way over to china and European countries. In fact did you know that there is a total of 119 countries that actually have a McDonald's, they actually operate 35,000 different restaurants and have over 1.7 million employees working for them.

The Golden Arches was not like how it is today, back then it started off as a small business that was run by two brothers by the names of Richard or Maurice McDonald. The business had been gotten started in San Bernardino, California as just a simple stand near the Route 66, and these two had a good amount of costumers for them just being a small brother run business. The two would soon be approached by a man named Ray Kroc who would then offer the two brothers a good sum of money to buy their restaurant and start to make it the first McDonald's Corporation; and when doing so Ray had  doubled the money he offered the Two but still making the McDonald name popular around the globe.

But now thanks to Ray Kroc the starter of the McDonald's Corporation we have McDonald's in almost each country but with adaptations to the menu in order to adjust to a country's personal beliefs or way of life. In fact, places like Asia, India, Mexico, France, Germany, etc; all in some way changed the McDonald's menu in their own way but still get so much profit out of each individual Restaurant. The business makes about 27.45 billion dollars yearly which estimated to about 75.21 million per day. McDonald's has certainly made it's up coming over the years and made a name for itself and it's certainly got many more years considering the company has been holding strong since 1948.
