Episode Description

In 1940, two brothers opened a small restaurant near Route 66 in San Bernardino, California. 

After meeting an aggressive milkshake-machine salesman, they established a business model that sparked a revolution. 

What began as a more convenient way to get a quick hamburger soon became a masterclass in supply chain management and technological innovation, and transformed into a real estate empire disguised as a humble fast-food chain. 

Learn more about the history of McDonald’s and how it became the most popular brand on Earth on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.
