McDonald's to open six restaurants in Vietnam this year
McDonald's will open five to six stores in HCM City this year, increasing the total number of restaurants in Vietnam to nine.
Nguyen Bao Hoang, general director of Good Day Hospitality, which owns McDonald's brand in Vietnam, said the fast-food business achieved positive business results in the first year in Vietnam.
One million burgers were served, including nearly 300,000 Big Macs. Hoang said McDonald's would open more new branches in the city this year.
At the opening ceremony of the fourth store in HCM City’s Go Vap District recently, Nguyen Huy Thinh, manager of McDonald's Vietnam, said the company would open five to six stores in the city this year. McDonald's is expected to move to Hanoi in the next two years.
In addition to expanding the restaurant chain, McDonald's Vietnam manager said the focus of the firm is to strengthen the supply of domestic raw materials.
McDonald's uses Da Lat vegetables and hamburger buns from ABC Bakery, a local brand. Recently, it has been using local eggs on a pilot basis.
