McDonalds is a franchise, isn’t it? Corporate doesn’t own the stores.

There was a good Polymatter video about this very topic: https://youtu.be/kJVj3vp-lho

McDonald’s model is pretty different from standard franchises.

Some stores are corporate owned and operated.

Most are franchise owned and operated, but corporate owns the real-estate the store is sitting on.

Corporate owns 15% of ~36000 total stores, which it leases to franchisees.
