Real Estate Fact: McDonald’s is not only one of the most successful fast food restaurant chains in history, but it also holds one of the world’s best commercial real estate portfolios!
Expanded Fact: McDonald’s sells franchise opportunities to franchisees who then run individual or groups of McDonald’s restaurants. McDonald’s owns most of the real estate each free-standing restaurant is built upon. (They don’t own a chunk of your local mall, or the office building an urban McDonald’s sits in.) That means that McDonald’s owns some of the best commercial real estate in the world, and they collect rent on each parcel. With over 33,000 restaurants, many of which are free standing, that’s an impressive real estate portfolio!
Fun Fact: Queen Elizabeth has a McDonald’s franchise as one of her many investments!
