Nearly 90,000 restaurants closed by the spring of 2021 following the COVID-19 pandemic. While some restaurants closed their doors permanently, others closed temporarily. McDonald’s was one of those retailers, closing 200 locations in 2023.
However, McDonald’s and the restaurant industry as a whole have seemed to finally bounce back, with McDonald’s planning the opening of 900 new U.S. locations by 2027. That offers an opportunity for people seeking a new job or fans looking forward getting a new location and enjoying money-saving deals.
