Supply Chain
MC Donald Supply Chain is based on three-legged stool concept:
McDonalds spent a few years setting up a
unique cold chain.

• McDonald’s recognized the unique problems and opportunities of the Indian market. The company then took its time, adapting its products and just as importantly its corporate strategy, and has been hugely successful since.
• At the same time, the company cannot afford to become complacent and rest on its laurels. Any future missteps, however small, could ruin McDonald’s efforts and hard fought gains in the country, allowing the company’s rivals to catapult past them and onto even greater success.
• In order to sustain in a very competitive market McDonald’s has to continuously think of bringing in new concepts into all its operations especially in marketing.
• The result of a spontaneous thought led to the introduction of breakfast outlets and a chance encounter with a technology specialist ended up with online booking orders and birthday parties and signature outlets.
• The success of McDonalds in India could be measured by its continuous growth in Indian fast-food market with 210 branches across India
