Our Company

All of our McDonald’s restaurants in Qatar are 100% locally owned, managed, and operated by Al Mana Restaurants & Food Co. As such, all business decisions regarding Qatar-based operations are locally made, and revenues are reinvested in the local economy.

Ever since we opened the doors at our first restaurant branch in Suhaim Bin Hamad Street in Doha’s Al Sadd neighborhood on December 13, 1995, we have been proud to serve the people of Qatar delicious, high-quality, and safely prepared food. We have also since remained committed to strengthening the foundation of our community through an active corporate social responsibility agenda, giving back through various initiatives.

Today, we are Qatar’s most popular and rapidly growing quick service restaurant chain with 75 restaurants across the country, serving customers at our restaurant branches and via drive-thrus and delivery. Our McFamily has more than 2,200 employees, with women representing 43% of our workforce. Together, we welcome customers with a superior service that is synonymous with the Golden Arches all over the world. Through our self-ordering kiosks and ‘Guest Experience Leaders’, we aim to offer our guests an unrivaled culinary experience in line with our ‘Experience of the Future’ initiative.

Over time, our menu has grown to include everybody’s classic favorites, breakfast menus, limited-time offers—and of course, McCafé, which offers the finest blend of 100% certified fresh Arabica beans, brewed by our highly trained baristas, along with a range of pastries on the side. Further, to provide a more personal, more convenient, and simply better digital experience for our customers, we have a McDonald’s app, which is a unified suite of compelling offerings that provide our customers with many reasons to engage.

Our expansion recipe, as it has for the past 27 years, always maintains one true ingredient for success: we don’t just serve good food, we serve feel-good moments—all with the lighthearted, unpretentious, welcoming environment that our customers know and love.

As Qatar grows, we look forward to growing alongside it. As new neighborhoods emerge across the country, we look forward to becoming good neighbors to new communities, creating a great employee and customer experience alike. Moving forward, we will continue to build trust to drive growth and legacy—one where people are proud to eat and work at McDonald’s Qatar for generations to come.

Can you imagine a world without the Big Mac? Or Chicken McNuggets? Or Happy Meals? Luckily, back in 1954, a man named Ray Kroc discovered a small burger restaurant in California, and wrote the first page of our history. From that humble start as a small barbeque restaurant, we’re proud to have become one of the world’s leading food service retailers, with more than 39,000 restaurants serving more than 60 million people in more than 119 countries every day.
