McDonald’s Canada

 For over 30 years  has been proud to provide Canadians and guests to our country the same great taste, outstanding value and superior service that is synonymous with the Golden Arches all over the world.

McDonald’s first restaurant in Canada opened on June 1, 1967, in Richmond, British Columbia. The Richmond restaurant represented the first McDonald’s restaurant to open outside the U.S. There are now more than 1,100 McDonald’s restaurants in Canada. McDonald’s serves approximately three million Canadians – that’s 10 per cent of the Canadian population – every day.

McDonald’s Canada and its franchisees employ approximately 70,000 Canadians from coast to coast, including restaurant staff, restaurant managers, and employees at 12 regional offices and the corporate head office in Toronto.

More than 65 per cent of McDonald’s restaurants across Canada are owned and operated by independent franchisees. The company benefits enormously from the ideas and enegies of these individual entrepreneurs.
