Macdonald’s Supply Chain

Macdonald’s Supply Chain McDonald’s investment in India has changed the entire

Indian fast food industry: It has raised the standards of food production and increased

local and international business for Indian companies. Produces over 2,000 pounds of cheese per month. Helped set up 15 bulk cooling centers throughout the district from which it

purchases milk. Checks fat content. Detects minute traces of pesticides or antibiotics

administered to cows. This instant rejection forces farmers to follow the best practices in terms of

raising livestock, using proper feeds, and cutting down on the use of pesticides and animal medicines.
