    One thing that I learned recently from the Modern MBA YouTube channel, is that these fast food brands don’t run stores – they primarily charge franchise/royalty fees, and the store operators/franchisees see a significantly different and lower-profit-margin situation.

    “McDonalds Corporation” is not where these expenses accrue.

      Those franchise fees are still tied to sales enough to have a dip during covid and continuous increases after which aligns with menu price increases.
