McDonald’s
One of the biggest restaurant chains originated in California, United States. Started by Richard and Maurice McDonald, this joint served great hamburgers; the duo even helped develop the logo that includes the two golden arches first seen in 1953.
Later, a businessman named Ray Kroc purchased the brothers’ rights to the store (franchise). He then took the company to new heights and operated as the organization’s CEO from 1967 to 1973. Today, McDonald’s serves almost 90 million customers in more than eight dozen countries. The restaurant chain brings in large amounts of revenue. Ray Kroc’s life was dramatized in the 2016 movie The Founder, directed by John Lee Hancock. The film criticizes his policies as a cut-throat profiteer but recognizes that these capitalistic values are what turned McDs into a household name.
