  • Mcdonald's Corporation
    MH0037 1259420477 REV: SEPTEMBER 14, 2015 FRANK T. ROTHAERMEL MARNE L. ARTHAUD-DAY McDonald’s Corporation SEPTEMBER 1, 2015. Steve Easterbrook walked into his office in McDonald’s corporate headquar- ters. He had finally achieved his dream of becoming chief financial officer (CEO) at a major Fortune 500 company, but somehow he had expected it to feel better than this. Don Thompson, the former CEO who had recently “retired” had not been just his boss, but his friend. They had both started their careers at McDonald’s early in the 1990s and had climbed the corporate ladder together. He had not taken personal joy in seeing either his friend or his company fail. Rather, Easterbrook had fantasized about inheriting the company at its peak and taking it to new heights—not finding the corporate giant on its knees in desperate need of a way to get back up. The company’s troubles had snowballed quickly. In 2011, McDonald’s had outperformed nearly all of its competitors while riding the recovery from a deep economic recession. In fact, McDonald’s was the number-one performing stock in the Dow 30 with a 34.7 percent total shareholder return.1 But in 2012, McDonald’s dropped to number 30 in the Dow 30 with a –10.75 percent return. The company went from first to last in 12 brief months (see Exhibits 1 and 2). In October 2012, McDonald’s sales growth dropped by 1.8 percent, the first monthly decline since 2003.2 Annual system-wide sales growth in 2012 barely met the minimum 3 percent goal, while operating income growth was just 1 percent (compared to a goal of 6 to 7 percent).3 Sales continued to decline over the next two years.

  • Starbucks, Mcdonald's and Dunkin' Donuts
    Journal of Case Research in Business and Economics Coffee wars: The Big Three: Starbucks, McDonald’s and Dunkin’ Donuts Michael G. Brizek South Carolina State University ABSTRACT Coffee – for some, a morning cannot begin without it. Many daily rituals include it. It can be seductive, enticing, and addictive. Hard-core coffee drinkers pride themselves on their coffee palettes, their refined ability to distinguish “good” coffee from “bad.” And once a die- hard coffee drinker finds his favorite blend, mountains sometimes must be moved to entice him to deviate from it. But, for decades, the idea of “good” coffee was synonymous with “expensive.” If a consumer wanted to try the best blends or flavors, he had to be prepared to pay for it. Wallets were emptied, change was gathered, and the coffee-hooked consumer was walking into the coffeehouse ready and quite willing to hand over $4 to a smiling barista. Perhaps it was true that the coffee was the best to be offered. Perhaps the ambience and cozy atmosphere was a drawing factor. Perhaps it was the label that was associated with it, the feeling that he now belonged to an upscale club or group that not everyone else was entitled to join. Whatever the draw, the consumer continued to come back; day after day, week after week. Then something happened. The economy began spiraling downward, prices rose, and suddenly, a $4 cup of coffee was not quite as attractive as it once had been. Enter: The Coffee Wars. Premium coffee shops like Starbucks were suddenly faced with competition from fast food upstarts like McDonald’s and Dunkin’ Donuts, operations that were abruptly breaking into the premium coffee industry with “cheaper, but almost as good, coffees.” Life as the coffee- drinker once knew it had changed forever.

    STUCK ON THE EXPRESSO IN DALLAS Both Cities Grind it out for Coffee Supremacy By Crystal Rawls h, coffee. The steaming fresh cup of elixir accompanying countless business meetings each day; the common thread Athat becomes the gathering place for executives to ink deals and catch wi-fi. The office “away from the office” fueled by caffeine. Think back to several years ago. Back when the best cup of joe, served at a local diner, had been sitting on a hot plate forever, and served alongside a homemade pie that a roach would turn up its “Coffee, combined nose at. Holding impromptu meetings in noisy settings, not knowing when – or if – your waitress was going to bring the food you ordered with free wi-fi, soft 30 minutes before is not the ideal environment for a business executive. It’s a distressing and distracting setting for making “background music important business calls, hosting potential clients, or even going decorating the over timely documents.

Coffee, combined with free wi-fi, soft background music decorating the atmosphere and the ability to be left alone to privately ability to be left alone conduct business, well, that’s just near perfection outside the office.

  • Coffee-Infused Coke? Yes Please!
    Global Journal of Business Pedagogy Volume 3, Number 3, 2019 COFFEE-INFUSED COKE? YES PLEASE! Ahmed Maamoun, University of Minnesota Duluth CASE DESCRIPTION The subject of coffee on its own boasts many different avenues for study and discussion. But when coffee is combined with the multi-national beverage corporation Coke, topics and options to approach a case become innumerable. Instructors will have plenty of opportunities to engage students and boost participation. This case is ideal for a junior or senior class on branding, marketing strategy, retailing, green marketing, or principles of marketing. It is designed to stimulate discussion about marketing and growth strategies, globalization, merges and acquisitions, positioning, and retail footprint. This case is an excellent vehicle for demonstrating how a single growth decision by a major player can send shockwaves through an entire industry. The case is designed to be taught in a 60-75 minute class, and is expected to require 3 hours of outside preparation by students. CASE SYNOPSIS Coffee is a majestic beverage that can quite possibly connect the world together. The Coca- Cola Company is the world’s largest beverage corporation, offering over 500 brands to consumers in 200 countries. However, Coca-Cola has not had a hot drink in its product mix, nor has it had a major retail footprint. With the growth in coffee and hot beverages, the company felt that the timing was right for it to make a thoughtful and significant investment in that category. In August 2018, Coca-Cola paid £3.9 or $5.1 billion to buy the U.K.-based coffee company, Costa, giving Coke its entry into the hot drink market.

  • COFFEE WARS: Starbucks Vs. Mcdonald's
    COFFEE WARS: Starbucks vs. McDonald's The purveyor of burgers is going upscale, treading on turf that the coffee titan has trolled for years. Which company will prevail? And what's the effect on consumers? Would you like some fries with that cinnamon dolce latte? OK, you probably won't hear that question any time soon. But in an odd twist in the evolutionary path of quick‐serve eateries, McDonald's and Starbucks are looking more alike every day. It's a trend that's going to continue, for a few simple reasons. With a McDonald's or a Starbucks just about everywhere you look, both companies are running out of room to roam. Who's winning the coffee wars? Starbucks was once expanding so rapidly that comedians joked it would be opening new coffee shops inside the bathrooms of existing outlets. The Seattle company plans to launch just 100 U.S. stores this year, though. And in the cutthroat world of fast food, McDonald's needs to distance itself from powerful rivals like Burger King and Subway. This competitive dynamic has the queen of premium coffee and the king of fast food poaching each others' customers in a low‐key but persistent battle. Each is taking ideas from the other's playbook on how to please customers and boost the bottom line. Call it the battle of the fries versus Frappuccinos. The double cheeseburger versus the double espresso. Or the Golden Arches versus the green siren. Whatever you name it, it's real, even if neither company admits it, and even if it's more a series of limited campaigns than an outright food fight.

First, I would like to express my deepest gratitude to my advisor, Mary Ann Glynn, whose intellect and kindness accompanied me throughout my time at Boston College. As an advisor, Mary Ann inspired my interest in culture as a lens through which to understand complex organizational and field-level dynamics. As a mentor, she was a stellar role model for a life in academia. As a friend, she always offered a helping hand, a listening ear, and a loving heart. For all this and more, my gratitude is truly endless. In addition, this dissertation would have remained a dream had it not been for my committee members, Mary Tripsas and Michael Lounsbury, who were not only central in helping me define the direction of my work, but also a continuous source of inspiration. Mary’s ongoing curiosity helped me to think about many aspects of my focal phenomenon in a different light. More importantly, her energy and passion taught me a lot about how lucky we are to do what we do.

  • Mcdonald's in Germany
    Academy of Strategic Management Journal Volume 18, Issue 2, 2019 MCDONALD’S IN GERMANY: GERMANS, STILL LOVIN’ IT? Annalee Nuque-Joo, Ewha Womans University School of Business Dohee Kim, Ewha Womans University School of Business Seungho Choi, Ewha Womans University School of Business CASE DESCRIPTION The factors in this paper aim to explain the decrease in revenues for one of McDonald’s international lead markets despite having a huge pool of assets, resources and knowledge in the fast food industry. The paper aims to analyze McDonald’s operations in Germany. In particular, this paper focuses on the importance of franchising strategies and market expansion of McDonald’s scale. This case contains concepts for senior level undergraduate and graduate students. This paper can be used for discussion on strategic management and international business classes. CASE SYNOPSIS Despite an overall increase in revenue for other fast food restaurants in Germany, as well as aggressive regional expansion efforts by its parent McDonald’s Corporation, only McDonald’s Germany revenue and net income decreased dramatically compared to other fast food brands in Germany in 2012. This paper’s findings show changing customer preferences in fast food dining, and rising competition from healthier and local brands led to a drastic -120% decrease in McDonald’s Germany’s revenue. Additionally, as they faced more criticism to provide healthier food while also matching local customers’ tastes, the brand was challenged to change their international strategy going forward. INTRODUCTION Arcadia, California-After seeing great success with their drive-in hotdog stand in the late 1930s, brothers Mac and Dick McDonald opened their very first burger-and-fries stand-alone restaurant in San Bernardino in 1948.
