A fast food entrepreneur employing thousands of McDonald's staff across the region told the ECHO he is "passionate" about developing his workforce as he prepares to open his latest branch.
Mark Blundell worked for the fast food giant in a number of operational and corporate roles for two decades, lastly as head of HR. He told the ECHO owning his own franchise was "always" his goal, starting out with a branch on Rice Lane ten years ago.
He now has a number of notable locations, including County Road in Kirkby, Aintree, Queens Drive, Ormskirk and on Great Homer Street, as well as Hey Road in Huyton, Walton Road, Bootle, Page Moss, Kensington, Skelmersdale and Formby. A new McDonalds, on the new service station at the side of the M58 in Maghull, is set to open next month (September 2022).
