Despite an egg and potato shortage and the cost of living crisis the fast-food giant sold millions across the nation.
In the last year alone, McDonald's contributed more than $1billion to the local supply chain by using Australian produce, products, and ingredients from over 15,000 farmers in its food. More and more foodies are choosing to eat at McDonald's and other bargain restaurants as the cost of living continues to go up across the country.
