When asked they say they are private!!! I thought all McDonalds were consessions run to the same rules..not only that but their prices are different
-
This is due to the fact that a number of McDonald’s restaurants in the UK are run by franchisees. Some franchisees do make a small charge for sauces, whilst many do not. Likewise, McDonald's prices vary between company owned and franchised restaurants, but prices for all menu items are clearly listed in each restaurant.

-
McDonald's UK cannot comment on the price of products in the USA. Each market is responsible for its own pricing structure. This can be influenced by several factors specific to the local market such as culture, different local tastes, as well as financial laws and taxes. In the UK McDonald's aims to provide a balanced menu with products at competitive prices.

-
Sorry, but McDonald's has no current plans to reduce the Happy Meal price to 99p. McDonald's aim is to provide its customers with the best quality food at the best possible price. The price is calculated based on factors such as cost of ingredients, sourcing, marketing, and estimated market sales. Taking the above factors into consideration, McDonald's feels that the current Happy Meal price is very competitive and represents great value.

-
McDonald’s aims to offer the best value for money across the whole menu and believes its food is very reasonably priced and of good quality. Our recent sales figures, which show we are serving up to 2.2 million customers more each month than we did in 2007 suggests that many people agree with us.

What are these? Delicious Digg Reddit Facebook StumbleUpon - 7. Why are McDonalds prices generally more expensive in the UK than they are abroad, particularly the United States?
-
In each country in which McDonald's operates, the company tries to source local produce. This coupled with variable costs such as rent, utilities and labour as well as natural economies of scales vary country by country and account for the difference in prices. The overall aim of the company is to provide the best possible quality food at the most affordable prices.

What are these? Delicious Digg Reddit Facebook StumbleUpon - 11. why are the same burgers '£1' burgers in england, while only 'euro burgers in europe, surely ours should be '68p' burgers?
-
Firstly many apologies for the slow response to your question, as the site went through a few changes; some questions slipped through the net so thank you for your patience. The Euro menu includes burgers such as the Hamburger and Cheeseburger at €1, which most McDonald's restaurants in the UK sell for 69p and 79p respectively. Factors such as the cost of living and the value of €1 mean the price can't realistically be directly converted to 68p. It's worth noting that what is valued at €1 in one country isn't always worth 68p in the UK. Regardless of the territory, McDonald's is committed to providing the best value for money across its menu.

What are these? Delicious Digg Reddit Facebook StumbleUpon - 14. please can you tell me what pricing strategies does mc donalds use? and what factors influence them?
-
McDonald’s apologises for the delay in answering your question. As the site went through some technical updates and changes, some of the questions slipped through. However, everything is functioning better and your question has now been answered – Thank you for you patience. McDonald's works hard to provide the best quality food at the best possible price across its menu. There are a lot of factors that are taken into account before a final recommended price is presented such as the cost of ingredients needed to make the product, marketing and preparing the product, delivery costs and customer research as well as any local factors that might need to be taken in to account. The goal is that each individual restaurant can provide food at the most competitive price possible for customers.
