Mcdonalds to close it's doors at Disney
Albeit, McDonalds packs in more than 47 million customers a year, the joint relationship of ten years with Disney is finally ending.
While the store may close relocating all of it's employees to other stores, McDonald's spokeswomen Danya Proud indicated that "we will continue to work with Disney on mutually beneficial opportunities" in the future.
The restaurant that featured the clown Ronald McDonald located in the shopping & dining district of Disney is scheduled to close April 30, 2010. In it's place, the highly successful competitor Pollo Campero that boasts a whopping 85 million in customers annually will try to fill the vacuum.
It's not easy to compete with a legacy company like McDonald's that has been in the business since 1940 when brothers Dick and Mac McDonald first opened their restaurant in San Bernardino, California.
As part of the many changes that are coming in 2010, the dynamic nature of the sponsorship business at Disney world can be ever-changing as evidenced by the sudden exit of this world-class icon.
