Porters 5 Forces
Rivalry among existing firms
Many small fast food business Intense competition in the Indian Market with other MNCs like Dominos, pizza hut, KFC
Porters 5 Forces
Threat of Substitutes- High There are many options in fast-foods to customers Customers could choose from Burgers to Pizzas to Beverages to noodles, etc Bargaining power of suppliers- Low McDonalds has gone into Backward integration and influences significant control over suppliers Bargaining power of customers- Medium McDonalds has to focus on value delivery to customers or else customers may switch
Future Recommendations
Introduction of loyalty program for Indian customers
Increase its product line, have more variety to choose from, to include more deserts and more items
Expand their Happy Meal choices to attract and retain customers To educate about healthy lifestyle, removing misconceptions about fast foods among people Introduction of cafeterias serving premium and specialty coffees and other beverages and other products such as cakes, pastries etc in the existing McDonalds.
Future Recommendations
Focus on gifts for all generations i.e. youth, kids especially senior citizen which is a completely new concept. Special promotions during festivals as Indians tend to spend more at such events. Try to sponsor college festivals. Work for social welfare of the society
