This is all about the restaurant I would want to own. But If I can’t have its franchise, then I would want to have a restaurant LIKE it!! It is the love of my life and the love of my stomach. I would die if I wouldn’t get a taste of their food, seriously. I used to eat here almost everyday, but always ended up getting broke at the end of the week. So, I had to stop my terrible habit! Who has seen Super Size Me? My parents encouraged me to watch it and I think their point for that was to stop me from indulging in all the glory! But it had no effect. I didn’t stop at all, just kept going back to my paradise and ordering things I wanted, especially the Coke float, since it was one of their affordable products, which helped with keeping my mind out off our really hot weather. Oh my gosh. If only these kinds of food were healthy! So here’s a really cute quote that involves this amazing fast food restaurant, the love of my life, McDonald’s!!
“No two countries that both have a McDonald's have ever fought a war against each other.”
McDonald’s Corporation is a fast-food restaurant company based in Oak Brook, Illinois. Since the 1950s, McDonald’s family-oriented restaurants have revolutionized the fast-food business and the company has become one of the best known in the world. Tens of thousands of McDonald's restaurants worldwide serve millions of customers a day. McDonald’s restaurants, which offer toy promotions and often feature playgrounds, are especially popular with children.
In 1948 brothers Dick and Mac McDonald remodeled their McDonald’s drive-in restaurant in San Bernardino, California, creating the prototype for the modern fast-food restaurant. The menu was limited to nine items: hamburgers, cheeseburgers, three types of soft drinks, milk, coffee, potato chips, and pies. French fries and milkshakes were soon added. By focusing on efficient production and service, McDonald’s cut the price of their hamburgers from 30 cents to 15 cents.
By the mid-1950s the original McDonald’s generated $350,000 a year in revenues. In 1954 Ray Kroc, then a 52-year-old salesman of milkshake machines, visited the restaurant and became convinced that its concept could work in other cities. The McDonald brothers agreed to let Kroc sell McDonald’s franchises (the right to market the company’s products within a certain area). In 1955 Kroc established a franchising company known as McDonald’s Systems, Inc. and opened a second McDonald’s restaurant in Des Plaines, Illinois. Within its first four years, the company had opened 228 restaurants, which generated $37.6 million in annual sales. In 1961 Kroc bought out the McDonald brothers for $2.7 million.
During the 1960s, McDonald’s began to mount aggressive advertising and marketing campaigns. In 1962 the company adopted the golden arches as its trademark. Ronald McDonald, the familiar clown that serves as McDonald’s mascot, was introduced in 1963. That year, signs at McDonald’s restaurants announced that the company had sold more than 1 billion hamburgers.
I’ll continue about this in another blog because I got to go. Peace!
