Founded by the McDonald brothers, Richard and Maurice, McDonald’s is the first fast food company that requires customers to pick up their own food. Compared to most fast food stores and restaurants, service-to-the-table was provided. For McDonald’s consumers, the customers have to stand in line and wait to pick up the freshly made hamburgers; and that was the most unique thing back then.

This fast food company was just a hamburger stand until Ray Croc found them in 1955. He then joined the company as a franchise agent which later proceeded to purchase the chain from the McDonald brothers. Nowadays, McDonald serves in more than 120 countries worldwide with more than 31, 230 franchised locations.
