McDonald's is getting out of Japan

>>135608389

I don't know how McD works in Japan, but in the US, Corporate McD owns the real estate under most of its restaurants, but the restaurants themselves are normally operated by franchisees. Selling off their stake in the Japan subsidiary might not be hugely different from that, if it turns out they get most of their money from rental income instead of food sales proper.

The corporate-owned locations will end up shutting down, but the franchise'd locations will likely stick around if the franchise location's owner decides the loss of corporate's support is worth the risk.

End result will be a severe reduction in the number of golden arches, but there will most likely still be plenty of locations in areas where major profits were made (such as central locations in major cities and such).

>>135608389
That doesn't sound like they are closing, they are just selling the local shares.

711 became a Japanese company when the American owners told it. Similar applies with Mr Doughnuts when the American company got absorbed by dunkin doughnuts. Just because the Americans might be cutting ties doesn't change anything about the Japanese management.

How do we spread the love of burgers to the world?

>is reportedly putting up for sale as much as a third of its 50% ownership stake in its Japanese unit,
Its selling 16% of ownership of Japan McDonalds, meaning after the fact it will still hold 34% ownership of the corporation. If the other 50% isn't held by some single entity, it will still be the largest shareholder.

Doesn't look like McDs is bowing out. Most likely reducing corporate influence on the market

>>135609143
It's overrated, any diner will have a better burger.

Best fast food burger I've had is probably from The Habit.

McDonalds is basically circling the drain. I wouldn't be surprised if it didn't exist anymore in 10 years.

Basically it's current strategy is "let's sell everyone breakfast all day" while making its burgers so small they barely are worth the money.

McDonald's is mostly dying because they've run from their heritage. Most people think "cheap, shitty fast food" when they think of McDonald's, so they responded by gutting their dollar menu and serving a bunch of $6 burgers and starbucks style coffee.

Taco Bell is doing great because they've completely embraced their reputation as cheap, shitty garbage.

>>135609391
I think Burger King's Japanese branch offered it briefly.

Taco Bell is great, when it's 2AM, and you're drunk. Just give me a 12 pack of tacos and a mound of hot sauce and I'm good.

>>135609473
I went to McDonalds for the first time in like a year and it had what looked like gourmet options and you could pick your own bun and shit.

What the fuck is that about? I just wanted some cheap nasty garbage, if i wanted a nice burger I'd go to the family restaurant down the street or I'd make my own.

Wendy's is where you go if you want to have bacon, the burger is just an accessory to that.

Options are Jr. Bacon Cheeseburger, Son of Baconator, or Baconator. Everything else is irrelevant especially whatever their promo item is as those haven't been good in 20 years.

I miss the gooey cheesy mushroom burger

MosBurger is actually rpetty decent.

>>135609969
No, there's still millions more cheap fast food places around.

Weird people watching for the cute girls. Look up "hauling" videos of girls showing off what air freshener and towels they bought, they have like half a million views.

>>135609963
Here's the problem. They don't even care about the burgers, they just order fries and drinks.

>>135609963
They are going to need a lot of ranch dressing for that many fries.

I had McDonalds for lunch in Ikebukuro when I was on vacation because my phone was dying and I couldn't find a free outlet anywhere.

I ordered what I thought was a chicken sandwich, but was actually a fish sandwich that was pretty good. The fries tasted the same.

Ironically I had the most trouble ordering here, because nothing was in English and they didn't have too many pictures.

>>135610019
When was the last time someone complimented McD about anything besides their fries?

>>135609969
I guarantee you not.

We have convenience available to us everywhere.

Even Starbucks and many other similar places began making high fat meals to ensure young hipster teenagers such as yourself get hooked and gain weight by their late 20's early 30's.

>>135610065
Frankly their Angus beef burgers are pretty good.

Most fags I see compliment the McRib, but that's more like just drunking BBQ sauce.

>>135609969
>Burger King, Taco Bell, KFC, Pizza Hut, Papa John's, Long John Silver's, Arby's...

You need a knife and fork to eat that shit.

Once you get to that stage you've gone too far.

>>135609473
I totally agree with you. I can get 2x the food from Taco Bell and it's not like McDonald's tastes any higher quality. I've also heard their coffee machines are filled with gunk because 0 of their employees get hired intending to be baristas.

>>135610065
Their caramel iced coffee is somehow great since their other drinks are terrible. Also a McGangbang is good.

Actually they still want you to buy the cheap stuff. It's just that the expensive stuff is what makes them look good, but once you are in the store you would gravitate to the cheaper menu thy actually WANT you to buy.

Presumably if the McDonalds corporate entity folded, then the Yum! franchises would take over the market share since that's the second largest fast food corporation in the US.

So you'd see more KFC, Taco Bell, Wing Street and... Pizza Hut I think is their other major brand.

Which would ruin Japan's picture of us eating burgers every day.
