McDonald's India's Secret to Cheapest Menu Out Now
The reason why every business wants to set their shop in India is due to its exponentially large and distinguished markets with a capacity to sky-rocket their revenue. But not most make it, let alone survive for decades.
This is the story of one such brand - McDonald’s.
McDonald’s set its foot on Indian soil in 1996 when there was no concept
of eating out in the country. Western dishes were unknown to the masses and
getting raw materials was a pain. So, how did a company like McDonald’s
survive?
What McDonald’s understood was the fact that in order to capture the
market and earn profits in the future they have to invest first. McDonald’s
built their kitchen from scratch, invested in behind-the-curtain technology,
and partnered with local suppliers, and farmers to source their raw materials.
Today, each Indian McDonald’s outlet sources natively grown or sourced
vegetables, dairy products, and meat. But how does it not affect the cost of
the end product?!
McDonald’s is known for their exceptionally low-price menu and the cost
is the lowest in India. As per Big Mac Index, the Chicken Maharaja Mac is
priced at INR 215 presently while its foreign counterpart, the Big Mac costs
about £3.19 (approx. INR 320) in the UK.
The secret lies in the company's unbeatable menu and its pricing.
McDonald’s India has items starting at approximately INR 50 which makes it
affordable even for college-goers. Additionally, its policy of self-service
reduces the need for waiters and waitresses which automatically minimizes the
cost of human resources. Locally sourced raw materials provide an exceptional
return on investment along with high-quality products.
And, lastly, McDonald's offers constant deals and discounts to attract
customers. One can find surplus deals while ordering McDonald's food online
especially through apps to deliver food. McDonald’s very own food-to-deliver
app McDelivery allows consumers to get the best deals and rewards while buying
their favorite menu item.
