  • Anyone who has worked at McDonald’s knows it’s a pretty thankless job, but what about the franchise owners? If you’ve ever thought about opening a McDonald’s franchise, you’ve definitely considered the amount of work it would take, but you also know that the restaurant is extremely profitable. Obviously, it varies from franchise to franchise, but if you want to get a general idea of how much you could make running one, as well as what it costs up front to open one, we’ve got you covered. Let’s take a look at how much money McDonald’s franchise owners really make per year.

    McDonalds normally gives you two choices on locations, your hometown or another location where there's an opening. I worked for a 2nd generation owner in the 90's, he did well by owning 5 stores. Most of the marketing in most areas are voted by a group of owners, specials, pricing etc. Some areas prices are higher or lower than others, depending where the store is located. Every 6 to 10 years the licensee must upgrade their stores, new equipment or full remodel. Some owners with multiple stores can afford it , while a one location cannot do one right away. The owner I worked for recently sold his stores to his son.

    I worked Summers at McDonald's in the 80's when I was in High School. Even then, I knew buying a franchise was a horrible idea if you couldn't afford to have at least 5 or 6 stores. Some things not mentioned in the video... Franchisee's are obviously required to purchase all of their food and supplies from McDonald's. Often, the prices they pay are over market value. The owner of the store I worked at often complained that he could buy beef and produce cheaper elsewhere but was required to buy from McDonald's. McDonald's also runs promotions that often require franchisee's to sell food at a loss. That "two sausage egg McMuffins for $4" promotion is a money loser. The intention is to drive people into the stores with the hope they'll order highly profitable soft drinks as well. If you don't, the just lost money. Franchisee's actually brought a class-action suit against McDonald's over this. One more thing not mentioned is that McDonald's requires prospective franchisee's to have worked as a manager in a McDonald's for 2 years. You also have to attend classes at "Hamburger University" in Florida. They may have changed that policy, but that's what was required when I looked into it.

Franchising helps the actual business owners. Once you take out the fees, the annual dues, profit shares, you as someone who invested time, energy, sweat and money don't do so well. The reason the franchise concept works so well is because of brand leveraging. Atleast thats what the illusionary "success" you naively allude to really is. So, yea, it's a waste of time. Start your own unique brand or invest sensibly. The concept of franchising is great, the execution usually is not, especially for the frachisee. That's a fact.

I’m not saying you’re not credible or that starting your very own business is a bad idea. All I’m saying is that franchising has been proven to be a successful business model. No need to call it a waste of time. I agree with brand leveraging and not all brands are equal. There’s too many success stories with franchising to call it a waste of time. That’s your opinion.

There are equally bad stories of people losing it after going the franchising route. Success stories don't give this business model anymore credence than failed franchise owners' stories does. It merely is a talking point for which side you're on. I've been through the experience and did financially well for myself, but because I've been through it I know that for most folks it's a waste of time. You still have to work your butt off and depending on your franchise choice you might miss a lot of life happening around you. At the end of the day, you're not really an independent business owner but a partner in a business who has to pay a whole lot of money and invest too much time just to make an executive level salary. Is it worth the risk? Depends on who you ask.

      TheTraffic247 I never said I didn’t have any experience in franchising. I was only basing my statements off of what info you provided. I imagine if things did “work out” or whatever you prefer to call it, chances are you’d still be in the franchise business. Just so we’re not hung up on technicalities, when it comes to creating ongoing/ passive income streams, the concept of franchising or duplicating a proven system can’t be beat. There’s always going to be risk, time commitment, expertise, and cost involved with any entrepreneurial enterprise. For the sake of agreement though, I’ll just say it’s my opinion. I do however, wish you much success in your endeavors! I know how challenging entrepreneurship can be in any form and I respect you for taking on the risk.

    Not sure where the numbers came from, but the average McDonald’s nets WAY over $150K. Additionally, owners also draw a salary from each store they own, usually around $200-$250K annually. So, $250K salary plus another likely $200-$400K net starts looking quite attractive. And then of course, the Mercedes that they drive is leased to their corporation and the vacation they take is “business” which are just a few perks-all adding up to a rather nice investment.

    It amazes me how many here post comments about how they know of someone who owns a franchise and do little work to rake in big profits. The truth of the matter is quite different. In the over-whelming cases, owners have to be thoroughly involved with the business if they hope to have a chance of seeing it run smoothly. Hiring a management team is great in theory, but unless you as owner become involved in the day to day workings of the business, you may be cooking up a recipe for disaster. Mismanagement and outright theft could torpedo the business in very short order. No type of business is immune. If you’re not willing to give it the time and effort, look elsewhere to invest your money.

    For those wondering, every company as a different price to open a franchise.
    McDonalds in particular is so expensive because
    1. There's so many
    2. Sales volume is just about guaranteed to he high
    3. If it was cheap, every asshole with a wallet to burn would try to open a franchise and devalue the chain in the process because there's too many in the wild
    Those thinking it's a bad investment, not really. Though, it clearly wouldnt be the smartest idea to have a mcdonalds be your first business venture.
    Personally, I would recommend buying residential real estate or partnering with another company.
    At the end of the day, buying a mcdonalds isn't the worst investment. Not even close

  • @RetrocadePodcast

    That's a low-end number. Most McDonald's franchises net about 10% of gross sales, which is really closer to $250,000 a year. I know a McDonald's franchise owner and between his two restaurants he nets about $700,000 a year. I know another franchise owner who owns a dozen McDonald's in the New York metro area and she is incredibly wealthy.

    "Ladies and gentlemen, I'm not in the hamburger business. My business is real estate." --Ray Kroc
    Quite simple: the company owns the land on which each franchise is paid, and collects rent and various fees so overall a franchisee will finish with 6-7% of gross sales--I reckon 6% given the rising cost of labor.
    One of my buddies owns six Taco Bell franchises in Mississippi. Two of them he does not own the land; he gets about 7% of gross sales in those stores, but those are very busy stores given their prime locations. The remaining four he owns the land, and those stores get him 14% of gross sales. He and his family are living very, very well.

      The problem, is not so much the owners - to the extent they respect their employees. The problem is the average restaurant has a net operating income of 6%. While this leaves some room for pay increases without increasing menu prices, there isn't much. For years I've been saying the company should rejig their agreements as the 15% in rent and services + 5% in compulsory marketing fees is a big chunk and even reallocating 1/4 of that to pay increases for front-line workers and supervisors would go a long way to improving their lives.

For instance I worked for a restaurant in a prime location in downtown New Orleans and our total revenue wouldn’t have been close to those numbers. Our average revenue/ week was $100,000 and this guys total net income of one McDonalds would be 80% of that. That’s pretty incredible if accurate and may be one of the best investments ever considering he would have tripled his money in year one. Definitely don’t think that is the norm.

How does that work out when one owns the restaurant?,

      @@phaedrussmith1949 , that $1-2 million is also kind weird. That may be for a new location, but an existing location is typically 5x cash flow. So, if you cash flowed say $300k, then you could potentially get $1.5 million for that store from me. Then I now have to pay off that $1.5 million, so banks may want that paid off over 7 years, so say just over $200k per year (interest is before cash flow so it does not factor in here). So for a number of years, I am making maybe $100k a year salary as I have to pay the banks off. BUT, at the end of 7 years, I have an asset worth $1.5 million (maybe more if I have done a good job and built sales, thus more profit). The whole secret is to work hard, build sales, build profit..........buy more stores........then have an overall company asset of a bunch of millions. I am a Canadian so can't comment on US McDonalds. In Canada, the company is very fair....(tough but fair). If you put in your 60 hours a week and give a shit, then you can retire in 10-20 years with a nice nest egg.
