Relatively few first time Owner/Operators obtain a new restaurant. The costs associated with new restaurants are as follows: |
Initial Costs
$45,000 Initial Fee paid to McDonald's |
Equipment and Pre-Opening Costs
Typically these costs range from $905,200 to $1,746,000. The size of the restaurant facility, area of the country, pre-opening expenses, inventory, selection of kitchen equipment, signage, and style of decor and landscaping will affect new restaurant costs. These costs are paid to suppliers.
The new Owner/Operators must pay forty percent (40%) cash of the total costs of a new restaurant, and may finance the remainder from traditional sources. While McDonald's does not offer financing, McDonald's Owner/Operators enjoy the benefits of our established relationships with many national lending institutions. We believe our Owner/Operators enjoy the lowest lending rates in the industry. |
