Since its launch in India 22 years ago, McDonald's has been reinventing itself to cater to the ever-evolving consumers. With its promise to serve wholesome and nutritious food, the brand has re-engineered its menu to bring down sodium and oil content in its products by 20% and 40% respectively. Fortified with natural dietary fibre, almost all the patties are preservative-free, and the soft serves are 96% fat-free and are made of 100% milk. The refined flour wraps have been replaced with whole grain wraps to make them more wholesome
Over the years, McDonald's has developed an indigenous menu completely unique to India. The brand has always been cognizant of the Indian sensibilities. It keeps its vegetarian kitchen separate from the non- vegetarian kitchen and does not serve pork and beef in any of its restaurants
HRPL currently operates 292 McDonald's outlets in West and South India. This is McDonald's 5th restaurant in Andhra Pradesh after Vijayawada, Nellore, Kakinada and Vishakhapatnam and 112th store in South India
