McDonald’s Corporation, founded in 1940 by Richard and Maurice McDonald in San Bernardino, California, began as a single drive-in restaurant that revolutionized the fast-food industry with its innovative “Speedee Service System.” This system introduced a new level of efficiency and consistency in food preparation, laying the foundation for the modern fast-food experience. In 1954, Ray Kroc joined the company as a franchise agent and eventually purchased the business from the McDonald brothers, transforming it into the global powerhouse it is today. Today, McDonald’s operates over 38,000 locations in more than 100 countries, making it the world’s largest fast-food chain. The company’s extensive menu includes iconic items such as the Big Mac, Quarter Pounder, and Chicken McNuggets, along with a variety of salads, beverages, and breakfast options. McDonald’s continues to innovate with new menu items and adaptations to local tastes, ensuring its relevance in diverse markets around the globe. The introduction of the McCafé line and healthier menu options also reflect the company’s ability to adapt to changing consumer preferences. McDonald’s financial stability is underscored by its strong credit ratings and consistent financial performance. The company’s reliable revenue streams, strategic global presence, and operational efficiency make it a preferred tenant for commercial real estate investors. With its commitment to quality, innovation, and customer satisfaction, McDonald’s remains a leader in the fast-food industry and a cornerstone of the global dining landscape.
