The McDonald’s Corporation is the world’s largest chain of hamburger fast food restaurants in the world, serving around 68 million customers daily in 119 countries across 35,000 outlets.
The company originally began in 1940 as a barbecue restaurant, and later on evolved into a hamburger stand. 

They are the largest toy distributor in the world, distributing 1.5 billion toys annually with their meals. Whilst they have been subject to many controversial claims and several high profile lawsuits, the company’s reach, value and product are undeniable as they continue to be an unstoppable global force. 

Facts:

• While the McDonald’s menu is relatively the same around the globe, there tend to be minor differences in certain countries. For example, beer can be found on the menu in Germany and in Hong Kong they sell rice burgers.
• Many people attribute McDonald’s success to its consistency. The experience is similar in all McDonald’s restaurants: the food is almost the same, the colors are familiar and the process of ordering your food is identical.
• Contrary to popular belief, following a diet of McDonald’s food doesn’t necessarily lead to weight gain. There have been several documented cases of individuals who ate nothing other than McDonald’s products and saw positive results.
