How do fast food chains that originated in America start up/operate business across other countries?

189 views

How does McDonald’s America open a headquarters and chains in places like Europe or Asia? And how do they collect revenue from them? Or does each nation own their own chain?

How do countries share profits and who pays for what? I have so many questions about how these businesses operate internationally.

When it comes to fast food franchises, it’s usually just based on licensing. Entrepreneurs start up their own McDonald’s restaurants with their own money, and they merely pay a *franchise fee* to the central McDonald’s corporation based in the US. Doesn’t matter what country they’re in. This is how it works inside and outside the US.
