mcdonald's is a restaurant that is

famous for serving hamburgers fries

milkshakes and other signature

sandwiches that has made the fast food

chain an icon since its creation in 1948

there are over 38 000 mcdonald's

restaurants in over 100 countries worldwide

worldwide

mcdonald's takes on the task of serving

69 million people around the world daily

and since the restaurant's existence

one out of every eight americans have

worked at a mcdonald's

the history of mcdonald's

it starts in the early 1900s

with two brothers maurice also known as

mac mcdonald

born november 26 1902 and richard

mcdonald as most people called him dick mcdonald

mcdonald

born february 16 1909

to patrick and marguerite mcdonald

along with their parents and their three sisters

sisters

mack and dick mcdonald were part of a

poor family of irish immigrants who

found a place to settle in rural new hampshire

hampshire

their father patrick who worked in a

shoe factory worked in the factory for

42 years until he was laid off with no

pension which led to the mcdonald

brothers realizing that their area in

new hampshire

didn't have much for them that would

make a decent living or a great life the

mcdonald brothers at a very early age

focused on being millionaires

richard mcdonald at eight years old

determined to be rich told his father

that he was going to be a millionaire

1926 with the help of a distant relative

working in hollywood california at the time

time

mac mcdonald then decided to pack his

bags and head west the distant relative

had connections with the booming movie

industry and said he could hook the

brothers up with jobs dick mcdonald

after graduating high school in 1927

also moved to hollywood to be with his

brother and work on their dreams

now living in hollywood the freshly

implanted new hampshire brothers worked

as handymen truck drivers and set movers

at columbia movie studios on sets of

various silent films at the time

they realized after getting paid 25

dollars a week that it wasn't going to

be enough to become the millionaires

that they dreamed of being and the fact

that there was no future in the work

that the brothers were doing as well

they decided to save as much money as

they could and find a way to still stay

in the movie business

even though they're trying to save money

the mcdonald brothers were still pretty

much flat broke

and in 1930 they were hearing talks from

other people in the film industry and

what these people were talking about was

a random movie theater about 20 miles

outside of los angeles california called

mission theater

with the combination of slow business

and hardly making a profit if any at all

the owner of the mission theater wanted

to be out on the lease

so the brothers approached the owner of

the mission theater and they said look

we don't have any money but

we will take on the lease and if we

happen to make money later on down the

road we'll sit down and we'll figure out

a deal

and so that's how the mcdonald brothers

wound up running a movie theater the

mission theater had the capacity to seat

750 moviegoers and the brothers also

installed a snack bar as well

in 1931 the mcdonald brothers then

opened up the theater with a new name

the beacon

as the beacon opened up in the first

couple years of the great depression

that was due to the major stock market

crash of 1929

business was slow and it was just enough

to keep things operating throughout the

early to mid 1930s

with the brothers putting all of their

money into the theater and not too much

of any profit coming from it

they're always behind on monthly bills

to keep the theater running

in extreme times with the fears that the

theater was going to be foreclosed on

the brothers bury their silver in the backyard

backyard

since this was in the middle of the

great depression a lot of the other area

businesses around the beacon theater

weren't making that much money either

the brothers noticed though when they'd

opened up the front doors to the theater

and looked outside they saw that this

root beer and hot dog stand on the

corner was getting a lot of customers

all the time

so after seven years of running a movie

theater the mcdonald brothers saw that

food sold a lot more than movie tickets

so the beacon theater was sold off and

the mcdonald brothers used the money

from the sale of the beacon to set their

sights into getting into the food business

business

in 1937 the brothers at this time then

opened a food stand called the air dome

it was an octagon-shaped food stand near

the monrovia airport along route 66.

hot dogs were the first things that were

sold at the air dome and then later

hamburgers were added at the cost of 10

cents each along with all you could

drink orange juice for 5 cents

now why all you can drink orange juice

well they lived in an orange grove town

and there's an ample supply of oranges so

they had enough oranges to be able to

supply all you could drink orange juice

being located in a town where the

biggest appeal of the town was the race

track the brothers made quite a lot of

business during the racing season but as

soon as the season was over business got

really slow

in 1940 due to the slow season being a

factor the mcdonald brothers wanted to

get away from their current location and

move somewhere else but they needed the money

money

so they looked to a bunch of different

banks to try to get loans here and there

and almost every bank denied them except

the bank of america

which then granted the mcdonald brothers

five thousand dollars

so with the five thousand dollar loan in

hand the two brothers moved the entire

food stand 45 miles east to a working

class town with a population of one

hundred thousand called san bernardino california

california

and with this move came a huge overhaul

of the menu with a total of 25 items

which was made of mostly barbecue and

also a new name turning the food stand's

name from the air dome to mcdonald's

barbecue the mcdonald brothers didn't

know anything about making barbecue but

after a few days of someone showing them

the ropes of working a barbecue pit they

were set and they were on their way

now at this period in time drive-ins

were a huge thing very very popular and

so mcdonald's barbecue was set on a

corner lot with drive-in service

so at this point this is when things

started booming for the mcdonald

brothers as they were making forty

thousand dollars a year from mcdonald's

barbecue that's roughly about seven

hundred thousand dollars in today's money

money

now there are two demographics of

customers who usually frequented a

drive-in there were the teenagers to the

young men in their 20s who were only

there to flirt with the younger women

who worked as car hops and then there

were also the working class families

just wanting a cheap meal

and the mcdonald brothers saw that the

young working families were more of what

they wanted to serve more than the rowdy

teenagers that were just there

uh wasting time

a fun little fact about the mcdonald's

barbecue drive-in is that the old

uniforms from the beacon theater were

re-used by the carhops to wear while

they were working

even though the carhop business was a

success the mcdonald brothers wanted to

see more growth and were making plans

for remodeling the business

as world war ii ended and in america

approaching a new age based on how fast

things could be serviced or food could

be prepared

they realized they needed a quicker way

to serve food

the brothers looked at the car hops and

they saw them as slow and unreliable

and they spent a lot of time flirting

with the customers in order to get

larger tips

they also looked at the menu and tallied

up what sold the most and what they

realized from all of the barbecue

sandwiches and everything else it was

the hamburgers that made the large part

of the sales

so based on the large number of sales

and how hamburgers were easily able to

cook and make they laid out their ideas

and in october of 1948 closed down their

drive-in to redesign this new version of

the restaurant

looking for full efficiency they looked

at how the ford model t was built with

the ford assembly line

and turned their kitchen and cooking

area to much like an assembly line

while construction and renovations were

underway the sign out front of the san

bernardino location read

closed for alterations

the first one in america the drive-in

hamburger bar owned and operated by

mcdonald brothers

dropping the word barbecue from their

name and now simply going by mcdonald's

on december 12 1948 the first mcdonald's

reopened to a fully new and redesigned

look and feel

they dropped most of their menu items

for a more simple menu

and this original menu consisted of six

items hamburgers cheeseburgers potato

chips coffee

soft drinks and apple pie

the 20 car hops were eliminated which

meant no waiting staff and orders were

taken and food was served at the counter

as there are self-serve areas with

condiments and napkins and trash cans

where customers could dispose of their

own trash

much like the past food stands the

mcdonald brothers had this one also had

no dining area and relied on the people

driving up getting out and ordering from

the counter

along with all of these designs also

came a mascot a chubby man with a

hamburger head with a chef's hat

and his name was speedy to represent the

restaurant's quick service

as these redesigns and cuts happened

this made mcdonald's able to sell their

burgers for half as much as any other

restaurants a lot of people around this

time thought the mcdonald brothers were

crazy for switching up their whole

design of their restaurant and at first

the customers really weren't that happy

about the new restaurant they would

drive up honk their horns and flash

their lights waiting for a car hop to

come out and then they just leave when

they realized no one was going to come out

out

the first month of business for

mcdonald's was pitiful it was just sad

it got so bad that they would have

employees park their cars in front of

the mcdonald's to give it the look that

there was a lot of people eating there

and business was booming

the first couple months with all their

tactics to try to draw people in it

still failed the brothers started

talking to each other and said hey you

know what maybe this ain't gonna work

out maybe let's just go back to barbecue

in the drive-in but as fate would have

it they decided to keep going with this idea

idea

after about three months of being in

business they started to

collect a few customers here and there

these consisted of cab drivers sales

clerks and construction workers

and they liked eating at mcdonald's

because they love the quickness and they

could get their food and not have to

wait so long while they're on their

lunch break from their jobs there was

another factor that started making

mcdonald's take off is that the younger

customers the kids and teenagers thought

it was a neat idea to be able to order

food themselves and get their order and

carry their trays of food around and do

things for themselves all this slow but

gradual collection of customers

it became a massive hit in the area to

the point where the mcdonald brothers

were pulling in a hundred thousand

dollars a year and so we're at 1949 and

potato chips on the menu are now

replaced with french fries and apple

pies are now replaced with milkshakes

instead of food taking 20 minutes to be

served on say a lunch break or dinner it

took only one minute instead

1952 mcdonald's was featured in american

restaurant magazine with a picture of

the restaurant stating quote the most

revolutionary development in the

restaurant industry in the past 50 years

with this article in the magazine people

from all over the united states came to

try out mcdonald's the mcdonald's

brothers realized that the old

octagon-shaped food stand was needing a

special unique look

dick mcdonald was looking at different

shapes of buildings that other food

stands had and he really wasn't

satisfied he saw most of them as scrawny

and small

and when he looked at the house he lived

in with the big columns in the front he

drew up an idea of the restaurant with

four columns and then he said ah that

looks terrible

and then he made one with an arch going

parallel with the building then he realized

realized

hey that didn't look too bad

and then he drew two arches running

along each side of the building and then

he realized that that look gave the

building a lot of flair

after interviewing at least four

different architects together the

brothers hired stanley clark meston to

work together to design a new building

for mcdonald's

meston with his assistant charles fish

found various ways to improve efficiency

they even drew out the exact

measurements of every single piece of

equipment they had in the kitchen in the

tennis court in the backyard of the

mcdonald brothers house

besides the improvements they gave

mcdonald's a more unique look compared

to the other restaurants as it had red

and white tile along with stainless

steel colorful sheet metal large panes

of glass white red yellow and green neon

lights that pulsed and most of all two

25 foot yellow arches made of sheet

metal with neon trim and even during the

early stages of design they called these

two arches the golden arches

during the process of looking at how

faster burgers could be made the

brothers looked at which condiments were

used the most

as workers making the burgers at the

time were using a wooden spoon to put

condiments on three or four burgers at a

time it was a problem and dick mcdonald

needed to find a way to solve it so as a

kid he remembered having peppermint

patties and realized how every single

peppermint patty had the same amount

every single time

so he went to a candy factory posing as

a writer saying he was going to do a

story about the candy factory to figure

this out a woman at the candy factory

took him to a marble table where they

made peppermint patties and showed dick

this metal cone with a hole at the

bottom with a stick inside that whenever

you'd lift the stick for a certain

amount of time that was the way

everything came out evenly

dick mcdonald knew that this was the key

for the mustard and ketchup being added

to the burgers

he then came back and asked a machinist

that did experimental work for the

mcdonald brothers if he could find a way

to make a funnel that would give the

right amount each time because if the

stick was lifted too much there'd be

more the same as if it was lifted less

which in turn would give less of the

condiment so he figured the best way was

to make a trigger to make the condiment

dispenser give the right amount every time

time

still as richard mcdonald's dream of

becoming a millionaire by 50 years old

was still a bit off

they started getting into franchising

the golden arch design and the system

by may 1953 neil fox who owned a string

of gas stations up and down the coast of

california he became the first

franchisee opening his mcdonald's with

the golden arches design in phoenix arizona

arizona

later a second franchisee was from neil

fox's brother-in-law roger williams and

bud landon williams and landon opened

their mcdonald's august 18 1953 in

downey california

this location is known as the oldest

surviving mcdonald's as it stayed true

to its original look and it's never had

to comply with any changes from the

mcdonald's corporation

created by ray kroc because this was

franchised out by the mcdonald brothers

so they were under a totally different

contract so this is the

oldest authentic looking mcdonald's from

back in the day

as they knew their restaurant was going

to be big they wanted to quit

franchising and build mcdonald's

restaurants up and down the coast of

california but after looking at this

non-franchise way of doing things the

brothers realized that they would have

to take care of all of these restaurants

themselves and

it'd be a lot more trouble than it was

worth the brothers then hired a

franchise agent bill tancy and he sold

21 franchises and from these franchise

sales nine more mcdonald's restaurants opened

opened

but then bill ran into some health

problems and had to pull out of helping mcdonald's

mcdonald's

now as many people who have any amount

of an idea of who ray kroc is you know

we really can't tell the history of

mcdonald's unless he is brought into the picture

picture

so at this point ray kroc he was the

exclusive salesman of the multimixer and

the multi-mixer is a milkshake mixer

that can mix five milkshakes at once

so as he noticed in his sales that

mcdonald's had ordered eight

multi-mixers for one restaurant he flew

out to visit the mcdonald's to see how

they were running things and he was

truly impressed

so now we're gonna dig into ray kroc's

life and give a brief but

really not so brief history of ray kroc

from his beginnings to where he was in

life at this point and from here on out

mcdonald's will then skyrocket into what

[Music]

raymond albert crock was born on october

5th 1902 to the couple lewis and rose

crock which lewis immigrated to the

united states from the czech republic

lewis crock loved baseball and worked

for western union since the age of 12

ultimately becoming the superintendent

rey's mother rose who was born in the

united states was a housewife and taught

piano lessons

as ray kroc grew up in oak park illinois

a suburb of chicago illinois ray learned

how to play the piano from his mother's

lessons which led him to play the organ

at his church

he also enjoyed playing baseball with

his friends and working odd jobs at

grocery stores

and later having a lemonade stand

outside of his parents house

between eighth grade and the first year

of high school ray worked at his uncle's

drug store and he learned how to make

people more comfortable with a smile and

a friendly salesman conversation

and making people purchase more food

than they originally came in for

attending high school in oak park

illinois ray grew to be highly

intelligent not the type that would

study and find books entertaining but

ray was always imagining things and

thinking of a way to make them happen

as he had a lot of confidence in himself

he was superior during debates at school

as he was always able to convince anyone

to see his point of view in the summer

of 1916 when ray was 14 years old he

saved up all the money he made from

working other jobs and him and his two

friends all put in a hundred dollars

each and opened up a music shop and they

sold sheet music along with small

instruments like ocarinas and ukuleles

rey would dress up in a sharp suit to

impress the ladies passing by hoping to

draw them in to sell some sheet music

that he'd play on the piano but after a

few months with little to no sales ray

and his two friends cut their losses

sold their remaining stock to a larger

music store and split

between sophomore and junior year high

school ray sold coffee beans along with

a few other things and realized he was

done with school and dropped out

as the united states had entered world

war one at this time everyone was

talking about going over and helping the cause

cause

ray knew that that's where he wanted to be

he lied about his age to get into and

join the red cross signing up as an

ambulance driver to be shipped overseas

while in training at the camp in

connecticut he came across another kid

who lied about his age to get in

everyone in the training camp saw this

kid as kind of odd because when

everybody else would be out in their off

time he would stay back at the camp and

just keep drawing he was none other than

walter elias or as most people know him

as walt disney

and as walter got assigned to learn how

to repair motors and drive cars on rough

terrain he wound up getting influenza

and was sent home

ray kroc however he never got to be sent

overseas as the war ended before he was

assigned then he was just sent back home

to chicago where he went back to school

only to drop out and start working in

the real world instead

in 1919 ray now 17 years old by the

request of his parents went back to

school but then dropped out again after

one semester and he started selling

ribbon novelties and playing piano

and fun fact he once played at a brothel

and if you read his book grinding it out

uh the one woman he describes in that

book is just the way he describes her is

just hilarious i definitely recommend

checking the book out

in the summer of 1919 ray gave up

selling ribbon novelties and he started

playing in a band at pawpaw lake at a

popular summer resort called edgewater

along the lake were hotels and

businesses that would have visitors that

would come over to edgewater's pavilion

to attend dances and see the band play

this is when rey met his future wife

ethel fleming she was the daughter of an

owner of one of the hotels near the lake

when ray and ethel first met they hit it

off perfectly and after that they were inseparable

inseparable

early 1920 ray's father got a promotion

at his job to work for adt

and with this new job the kroc family

had to move to new york rey was wanting

to marry ethel and he didn't want to

move but he wound up moving anyways to

new york and he worked the cashier's

cage at the wooster thomas office

and one morning ray shows up for work

and he sees that the office is boarded

up and there's a posting stating that it

had gone bankrupt

rey out of a job and happy to have a

reason to go back home ray left to go

back to chicago and his family followed

soon after as they realized they weren't

really happy in new york

1922 rey ready to marry ethel his father

gave him some advice that if he wanted

to marry a woman then he better have a

steady job so rey looked and he saw that

these things were preventing infection

during the great american flu epidemic

of 1918 and

they were quite innovative and

getting more popular so we got into

selling paper cups and after getting

hired at the lily tulip paper cup company

company

ray kroc and ethel fleming got married

1923 ray now 21 years old being very

personable with his customers and always

checking up on them it led him to be the

top salesman for lilly tulip and at this

time ray young and hard working he

really started showing how much of a

hard worker he was he'd be waking up

early every morning and by 7 am he'd be

hitting the soda fountains in the area

and then by 5 30 p.m he would go to his

other job for radio station

wges which had a studio in a hotel a few

blocks away from where rey and ethel lived

lived

during the evenings ray would play the

piano at the radio station from six to

eight leave to go home and get dinner

and then come back to the station to

play from 11 pm to 2 am

go home then by 7 a.m he'd be back out

on the street selling paper cups

this nearly around-the-clock schedule of

work started to strain the relationship

between rey and his wife ethel

things got less tense though when rey

started getting time off on saturdays to

spend with his wife

october 1924 rey and ethel had their

first and only child

a baby girl named marilyn

spring 1925

ray struck up a friendly chat with the

owner of a german restaurant about cars

ray wound up getting the account to sell

cups to this restaurant and this made

ray enough money to buy a new ford model

t right off the lot

now during the cold winters in chicago

this made the paper cup business slowed

down and at this time ray saw real

estate in florida booming almost

comparable to the gold rush

so ray taking a chance at it was granted

a five-month leave of absence and moved

to florida

ray quickly found a job selling real

estate for wf morang and son

ray was legitimate but the boom seemed

too good to be true as the boom ended

and suddenly business went to a complete stop

stop

now freshly out of the real estate business

business

ray thought of going back to chicago

but someone overheard him messing with a

piano in his house and got him into

playing in the willard robinson orchestra

orchestra

after a while of playing in the

nightclub ray was making 110 dollars a

week which got ready to rent out a much

larger apartment for his wife and his sister-in-law

sister-in-law

as this was the time of prohibition on

alcohol and the nightclub ray played at

illegally served alcohol

it eventually got busted from cops

getting past security too quick before

people could hide their drinks

everyone including ray got thrown in jail

jail

three hours later though ray was

released and took a look at his life in florida

florida

and his wife at this point was homesick

and his sister-in-law was dating a man

and living her own life in florida

so ray and ethel and their daughter

marilyn headed back to chicago

1927 ray chucked playing the piano on

the side to make some extra money and he

focused solely on selling paper cups for

lilly tulip and he started selling

smaller paper cups to street vendors and

larger cups to concession stands at

beaches and zoos

everywhere you could think of

in 1930 ray putting in hard work selling

paper cups he snagged a deal selling

paper cups to the walgreen drug company

and after snagging this account ray went

on to get other larger business accounts

as well

and through the 1930s even with the

economic depression at an all-time high

ray was so successful at selling paper

cups that he was able to buy a brand new

buick hire a secretary and also have a

living maid at his home

1932 croc was surrounded by all kinds of

things that were growing and showing up

everywhere as he sold paper cups

and one of the things that he saw were

these little stone castles all over the

state of illinois these castles were set

up by an engineer and a customer of ray

crock's earl prince

prince called these ice cream shops

prince castle ice cream parlors

in michigan ray had another customer who

was making a new form of milkshake that

was a lot thicker and colder it was a

more frozen style of milkshake that

wasn't as runny as the milkshakes at the time

time

walter fredenhagen owned the prince

castles in ray crock's area

ray mentioned this new form of milkshake

to walter but walter said it was you

know just another thing that he just

didn't want to deal with

ray he finally convinced walter and earl

prince to check out the milkshakes in michigan

michigan

after the two saw the milkshakes for

themselves they knew they had to start

their own version of the thicker and

colder milkshake as they set out to make

their version of this milkshake they

realized that the one spindle mixers

would always burn out as they would

repeatedly be making milkshakes

and that's when earl prince invented the

multi-mixer it was a milkshake mixer

with six spindles that could make six

milkshakes at once

it was originally six spindles but then

over time they were realizing messes

happened when there was six it was just

too much so they cut it down to five

spindles instead and that's what became

the standard ray was ecstatic to show

off the multi-mixer to lily tulip cup

company and they loved it and they

signed a contract for sanitary cup and

service corporation to be the exclusive

distributor of the multi-mixer but when

lily tulip headquarters in new york

caught wind of this

they frowned upon it stating that they

were only a paper cup company that was

it nothing more

ray kroc being disappointed about this

earl prince told rey that he should just

quit lily tulip and work for him

exclusively selling the multi-mixer but

there was still the contract that lily

tulip had with sanitary cup for the

multi-mixer crock angrily yelled and his

boss worked out a deal finally where

they would own 60 of prince castle sales

and croc would own 40 percent

1938 sales were pretty slow for the

multi-mixers starting out but all the

while still ray was thinking of a way to

get the sixty percent of ownership from

sanitary cup and

and

inevitably end up having full ownership

ray had a small office in chicago the

secretary did most of the office work as

ray was always out traveling and trying

to sell the multi-mixer to every soda

fountain and restaurant that he could

in 1940 after two years of selling the multi-mixer

multi-mixer

and it was slowly gaining some steam ray

thought it was time to own it completely

his old boss replied 68 thousand dollars

in cash

ray increased his mortgage to be able to

pay the 12 000 in cash up front and his

boss let him pay the rest of the 56 000

off over five years plus interest with

his choice of work and getting into this

debt this only worsened the marriage

between rey and ethel it was probably

the worst time to take on this debt

because in december 1941 the united

states entered world war ii and there

was a restriction on the use of copper

with copper needed to wind motors for

the multi-mixers and earl prince unable

to come up with any other inventions

that didn't have restrictions

ray found himself out of work but he

quickly found a new job selling malted

milk powder and paper cups called malta plenty

plenty

late 1941 until the end of the war in 1945

1945

ray selling multi-plenty was able to

keep his life afloat and also continue

paying off his debt to lily tulip to now

he had full ownership of prince castle

sales in 1945.

as business boomed after the war

ray was pushing his multi-mixers to

tasty freezes dairy queens and a w root

beer drive-ins

the late 1940s were great years for ray

selling on average 5 000 multi-mixers a

year and one year selling 8 000

multi-mixers at 150 dollars a piece

early 1950s though ray's sales were

starting to look threatened as walgreens

drugstores stated that they were

removing soda fountains from their stores

stores

many more places soon followed as this

was the time when suburbia was growing

and as soda fountains were popular in

the cities they were less and less

frequented and this caused rey's

customers to start dwindling down

competition from other companies selling

their version of multi-mixers didn't

help either

so as the multi-mixer was looking like

it was going to hit a dead end soon ray

was looking for a new and innovative

product to sell that would have the same

great effect just like the multi-mixer had

had

ray thought he had something when one of

his salesmen turned him to his neighbor

who had built a kitchen table with

benches that would fold up into the wall

they called it the fulda nook it soon

turned out though that the salesman who

turned rey onto it was trying to con him

in some kind of way and this made ray

fire him along with not pursuing the

fulda nook anymore

so 1954 while ray was on the hunt trying

to find the next big thing that he could sell

sell

he kept getting calls here and there

asking about those mixers that the

mcdonald brothers have after these calls

and hearing a bit more buzz ray looked

up the orders from this one restaurant

in san bernardino and seen that they

ordered multi-mixers in bulk it shocked

him when he saw that the one store alone

this mcdonald's restaurant needed eight multi-mixers

multi-mixers

so rey wondering why a restaurant would

need so many multi-mixers he decided to

fly out to this place

he got to san bernardino early in the

morning right before the mcdonald's

opened he passed by it and saw it was

just a small drive-in

no seats inside and customers had to

walk up to the window to order

ray watched as the first cars pulled up

which were the workers as they got ready

to open up the mcdonald's the workers

were all dressed up in clean-cut white

button-down shirts and white pants

wearing paper hats

some getting the kitchen ready and the

others heading to the back storage area

running up sacks of potatoes on carts

a combination of racing the uniforms and

all these people working efficiently

impressed him right away

when 11 am hit mcdonald's open for

business for the day and people started

filling in and lining up almost instantly

instantly

customers who had gotten their food were

eating it like crazy it was insane for

rae to see how much the people were

eating up the food

at this time most drive-ins had the

motorcycle and teenager rough and tumble

kind of crowd but mcdonald's had this

family-oriented image which rey also

liked looking at the people lining up

and the others in the parking lot eating

their food in their cars

ray chatted up with some of the

customers and he found out that most

people liked mcdonald's because of their

fries and hamburgers how great they

tasted and also that most of their food

was about half as much as any other restaurant

restaurant

when the crowds finally died down around

2 30 p.m rey then approached mack and

dick mcdonald and they were more than

happy to talk to rey the brothers

referred to rey as mr multi-mixer this

conversation led to a dinner that night

where rey learned how the system of the

restaurant worked step by step and how

to prepare the food on its menu and its prices

prices

cheeseburgers were 19 cents hamburgers

were 15 cents

soft drinks were 10 cents milkshakes 20

cents and coffee was 5 cents

after the dinner the brothers took rae

to see the architect who is working on

the new design of the mcdonald's

this new design had yellow arches and

neon lights

croc in the back of his mind saw that

there was a few flaws with it but yet

again he was still amazed

after the dinner and ray was back in his

hotel room laying in bed he was sitting

there thinking of having mcdonald's

restaurants coast to coast in the country

country

more importantly each of these

restaurants having eight multi-mixers in

each one

which in turn would make him rich

at this point croc had no intentions of

owning mcdonald's he was just thinking

of expanding mcdonald's restaurants so

he could sell more multi-mixers

so here we have ray kroc he's 52 years

old he's suffering from

a slew of different health problems from

diabetes to arthritis

he realized that the multi-mixer sales

were dwindling and he had to do

something about this

seeing mcdonald's and how well they were

doing he had to find some way to make

something happen

so the next day ray showed back up to

mcdonald's and he studied how the

burgers were grilled and more

importantly how the french fries were

made as they were the best fries that he

and everyone else eating at mcdonald's

had ever had

after the lunch rush on the second day

ray and the two mcdonald brothers were

in the mcdonald brothers office and ray

gave this big speech about how

mcdonald's is a gold mine and they

needed a strike and get more restaurants

out there

after rey gave this big enthusiastic speech

speech

it was met with dead silence

mac mcdonald broke the silence and told

rey that they liked the way they were

living and they didn't intend to

complicate things by opening up even

more mcdonald's restaurants as it would

just give them more headaches than anything

anything

rey then replied back to the mcdonald

brothers saying that they didn't have to

deal with it if they were to hire

somebody to take care of the running and

open up the new places for them

the mcdonald brothers then asked rey who

would want to bother doing that ray

looked at himself and he said

i could

so after this meeting ray was back on a

plane heading towards chicago with a

signed contract from the mcdonald

brothers to be their franchise agents

the mcdonald brothers and rey's contract

was that it was 1900 for the franchise

fee along with ray kroc getting 1.9

percent of gross sales of any franchises

he brought on board and the mcdonald

brothers would get .5 percent of the

gross sales

at home the mcdonald's contract put more

ice on ray and ethel's marriage as ray

was now focusing almost 100 percent into

mcdonald's which he had to in order to

make a living for his family

in 1955 ray started working as the

franchise agent for mcdonald's and

having the exclusive rights to sell the

mcdonald's brothers method and with that

he founded the mcdonald's system incorporated

incorporated

on april 15 1955

with the help of a friend art jacobs

ray went in 50 50 with art to build

their mcdonald's in the chicago suburb

of des plaines illinois seven minutes

away from rey's home

the first year of ray's mcdonald's was

filled with kinks even during the

building process when he needed a

basement in the mcdonald's in which the

original blueprints of mcdonald's didn't have

have

from temperature problems to keeping the

store well ventilated to the fries not

coming out like the ones that rae had

tried at the mcdonald brothers store

there was all kinds of problems so after

three months rey had his own system down

of having fans on the potatoes to make

sure that the fries came out like they should

should

so dealing with these problems after

building the restaurant

rey was made aware of two things after

the agreement was done

one was that the brothers had sold the

name mcdonald's to 10 other stores in

california and arizona the areas with

those mcdonald's stores were off limits

but the rest of the united states to

franchise out stores were all rays

and the second thing is that the

mcdonald brothers sold the franchise

rights of mcdonald's in cook county illinois

illinois

where rey's mcdonald's was located to an

ice cream company so rey had to buy out

the rights from the company for twenty

five thousand dollars

twenty thousand dollars more than what

the ice cream company had originally

bought it for

ray struggled to get the money together

but luckily he still had money generated

from prince castle sales

so this is what ruffled the feathers

between rey and the mcdonald brothers as

the brothers never mentioned to rey that

they sold the rights to the ice cream

company prior [Music]

so we're getting ahead of ourselves a

bit let's go back to about a month after

rey opened his mcdonald's made 1955 saw

harry sonneborn come into the fold

he had recently resigned as vice

president of finance for tasty freeze

which harry had ordered multi-mixers

from rey before while working at tasty

freeze he noticed how rae had a good

thing going with his mcdonald's and

called ray wanting to be a part of it

rey knew that he needed help franchising

mcdonald's but he was spread thin and he

knew he couldn't afford anybody

regardless harry met rey in rey's office

harry 39 years old at the time walked in

standing at six feet tall lanky but

disciplined and serious

as they discussed the high risks of

franchising on a larger scale ray told

harry at the end of the meeting that he

couldn't afford to hire him harry then

said he'll figure out the lowest amount

he could take as a salary to support his

family and bring it to rey hoping to be

hired when harry came back he told ray

he could work for a hundred dollars a week

week

harry was hired on the spot as executive

with his knowledge of the ins and outs

of everything legal and financial he

became a valuable asset to mcdonald's

ray looked at mcdonald's as a family

friendly place so we made sure

franchises would not have pay phones

jukeboxes or vending machines which

would create an environment where people

would hang out longer than it would take

for them to eat their meals and leave

by the end of 1955 kroc opened two more

mcdonald's locations which grossed 235

thousand dollars in sales

at every location ray used the mcdonald

brothers format and also used the motto

if you have time to lean you have time

to clean to all of his workers including

himself to make sure the restaurants

were cleaned spotlessly

1956 eight mcdonald's restaurants were

opened and rey wanted the franchise to

be more than just a name that all kinds

of different people used he wanted to

make sure that every mcdonald's was the same

same

so basically a mcdonald's in chicago

would have the same exact food and

appearance as it would in new york city

or in santa claus indiana

ray realized that he had to make a

development business where all the

mcdonald's would be under one marketing

program nationwide

but for all of that to happen

hiring people to supervise and make sure

each store operated smoothly

took money

so the solution for the money problem

and to get this ball rolling it was all

thought up by harry sonoborn with the

franchise realty corporation

it was designed only to hold mcdonald's

real estate and this company signed

leases and mortgages for the land and

buildings passing the cost onto the

franchisee with a 20 to 40 percent

markup and with this they lowered the

franchise fee to 950 dollars

franchise realty started with a thousand

dollars up front and harry turned it

into 170 million dollars worth of real estate

estate

this became the biggest decision

financially in mcdonald's history which

has made the restaurant to be as big as

it is as the same model is still in

place today

so as this happened ray harry and the

secretary june worked like crazy around

the clock in these early years feeding

this baby of a restaurant to grow into

the giant that it was destined to become

with franchise realty up and running

needing someone that could handle

corporate operations

ray thought back to a 23-year-old fred turner

turner

fred was part of a family group wanting

to be a franchisee and while fred was

waiting for his family group to figure

out where they'd want to put their

mcdonald's fred took up rae's offer to

learn how mcdonald's operated at ray's

displaying store

right away fred was a natural leader

making sure all things clicked in the

store when the family group fell through

and a franchise store wasn't built fred

was then sent to be a manager at the

mcdonald's in chicago

and as soon as mcdonald's needed

somebody to handle operations fred was

pulled by rey to work for his newly

appointed position

january 1957 fred turner started work on

operations of all mcdonald's stores for

475 dollars a month and throughout this

time ray and harry were butting heads a

lot but both still shared the same dream

of making mcdonald's huge

harry the more scholar and analytical

and rey the more enthusiastic and

people-pleasing type

june martino the secretary had to be the

cushion between the two to keep

mcdonald's from imploding meanwhile fred

turner had figured out the best shape

and size of the hamburger patty

one tenth of a pound 19

fat content

all beef and no fillers

by 1958 there were 34 mcdonald's

restaurants and fred turner was handling

all of the food and supply purchasing

for mcdonald's

1959 the first mcdonald's location in

hawaii opens up in honolulu

harry sonnebourne became the president

and ceo of mcdonald's and also they ran

into trouble as one man planning to be a

franchisee started building mcdonald's

stores on land he didn't have the titles for

for

there's not much more info on the man

and what happened to him but ray who at

the time had a net worth of 90 000

was having to borrow 400 000 to pay the

mess left behind from this man

so after this four hundred thousand

dollar ordeal

ray got the idea to build ten mcdonald's

stores ran strictly by the company and

through saunaborn three insurance

companies came forward to lend 1.5

million dollars

this lended money was in exchange for 22

and a half percent of mcdonald's stock

the money from these insurance companies

made mcdonald's grow like wildfire and

it gave the mcdonald brothers back in

california a nice chunk of change

in 1960 the first company store was

opened in columbus ohio

ray wanted to bring in new ideas to

further grow mcdonald's but due to his

contract he had to get any changes that

he wanted done approved by the mcdonald brothers

brothers

ray was curious to see how the

mcdonald's stores in california were

running so he sent fred turner to check

it out

fred came back to report that the

original san bernardino location was the

only real legit mcdonald's the other

locations had the burgers and fries but

along with it they were serving pizza

and another one was serving burritos and

enchiladas the problem with this was all

these extra menu items drug the quality

of the hamburgers down which in turn

gave the other mcdonald's restaurants a

bad image

ray brought it up to the brothers but

the brothers just brushed it off and

really just didn't care

ray wanted to be in control of all the

mcdonald's and the mcdonald's brand he

was mad but he couldn't do anything

about it so at the moment he just had to

deal with it

august 30th 1960 the 200th mcdonald's

location was opened in knoxville

tennessee and the first alaska

mcdonald's location opens in the city of

juneau in 1961 in minneapolis ray was

having a dinner with a new franchisee

and ray met a married woman who was

playing the organ this was joni smith

and he fell in love right away

and small world because it just so

happened that the franchisee was hiring

joni smith's husband as the manager for

his new mcdonald's restaurant now ray

being a married man going to see the

mcdonald's in minneapolis was a great

excuse to see joni when ray would visit

minneapolis he'd make small talk with

joni he'd play piano as she'd play organ

doing duets

and they'd spend a lot of time

talking on the phone long conversations

at night as ray would tell joni all of

his big dreams about mcdonald's and what

the future could hold during one of

these long phone conversations

ray proposed to joni that they both

should divorce from their significant

others and get married

as joan and ray both felt the same way

about each other ray put the ball in

jones court and divorced ethel right away

away

through divorcing ethel rey wound up

giving ethel the house the car all of

the insurance and 30 000

a year for life

the only thing that ray kept was his

share of mcdonald's

to pay for all of the legal fees through

the divorce ray wound up selling prince

castle sales for 150 thousand dollars

ray saw this as a small price to pay to

be able to marry joan and finally be happy

happy

when rey told joan the news joan was

happy but joan hit ray with the bad news

that she didn't divorce her husband and

she needed more time to think about it

so rey with a change of plans of not

marrying joan right away he focused all

of his time into mcdonald's even more

with mac mcdonald's health declining and

dick mcdonald wanting to retire

rey was now determined more than ever

and he was also tired of always having

to go through the mcdonald brothers for

approval of anything at all

so rey asked the brothers how much it

would cost to buy them out completely

the brothers came up with a figure of

2.7 million dollars in cash only

the brothers came up with this figure

because 2.7 million meant both brothers

would get a million dollars each in cash

after taxes the obvious problem with

this was that ray didn't have 2.7

million in cash

so he asked the brothers to finance

instead but the brothers were adamant

about the 2.7 million in cash only so

ray needing cash to buy out the mcdonald

brothers and the insurance companies

that they got money from previously

being tapped out ray and harry found

john bristol he was a financial advisor

to various colleges and institutions and

that led them to get the money

so from 12 educational and other kinds

of institutions from princeton

university to howard university to even

the ford foundation ray got the 2.7

million to pay off the mcdonald brothers

and to be the sole owner of mcdonald's

after the deal was done

rey had the thought that the original

san bernardino location was his as well

the brothers went back on their deal

which was through a handshake agreement

and wound up keeping their original restaurant

restaurant

ray wanted this spot because it was a

very popular spot and it drew a lot of

money it was a great location and to not

have it after paying the brothers off

and owning the mcdonald's brand it got

to him

ray kroc not usually being a vengeful man

man

he went to the brothers and made it

aware that he owned the name mcdonald's

and the brothers were legally made to

change the name of their restaurant

mcdonald's to the big m instead

with ray kroc now completely owning

mcdonald's the overall image of the

restaurants kept some original things

and brought in some new things as well

the early mcdonald's mascot speedy with

the hamburger head was cut

and a new mcdonald's logo featuring the

golden arches was brought in

on the business side of things ray made

it to where a franchisee could only own

one store at a time

this was done so no one owned one whole

territory and gave ray kroc more control

over mcdonald's altogether

rey also sold all the supplies to the

restaurants at a decent price

and made sure that every franchise was

making a decent profit

so jumping out of the business side of

things and back into rey's personal life

later on in 1961 joni called rey after

she thought it over and she gave him the

news that she couldn't go through with

divorcing her husband so after this ray

packed his bags and he left chicago for california

california

the first couple years in california for

ray were lonely and he spent a lot of

time in his house just filling it up

with a bunch of stuff

it was at this point that he saw reports

of the mcdonald's stores and he noticed

that joni and her husband opened their

own mcdonald's in rapid city south dakota

dakota

now bouncing back into the business side

of things in rey's life which he had

plenty to keep his mind occupied

as there was a franchisee in cincinnati

who was having problems selling on

fridays as the city had a huge

population of catholics who at the time

couldn't eat meat on fridays

the competing restaurant in town big boy

had a fish sandwich on fridays that got

all of the business

so this franchisee mentioned that they

should also serve a fish sandwich at mcdonald's

mcdonald's

ray didn't like this idea at first but

he was okay with it after he was able to

settle with what kind of fish would be

served and after an employee added a

slice of cheese to the sandwich it just

set it off completely and rae gave this

fish sandwich the green light to be served

served

and rey named this sandwich the filleto fish

fish

so ray looking at this idea of having a

sandwich with no meat in it he wanted to

give the filleto fish some friendly

competition so rey came up with the hula burger

burger

and the hula burger was a piece of

grilled pineapple with two slices of

cheese on a bun

so starting on good friday in 1962 in

select locations the hula burger and the

flail fish were put on the menu

the results from the sales of the hula

burger and the filleto fish on good

friday were filleto fish 350

to the hula burger at just six

needless to say the hula burger was

taken off the menu shortly after

also in 1962 just to stick it to the

mcdonald brothers ray kroc built a

mcdonald's just a block away from their

restaurant the big m

1963 ray fell in love with a woman by

the name of jane green she was a really

sweet and kind woman who also worked as

the secretary for the movie star john

wayne jane and ray would go on dates to

the point where it was almost every

night till just after two weeks of

dating they got married

1963 also saw the new mcdonald's mascot

in which he came in the form of a clown

named ronald mcdonald the hamburger

happy clown

he's known all around the world with

bright red hair wearing a yellow

jumpsuit and red and white striped

clothes underneath and wearing big red

clown shoes

he first appeared in three tv

commercials and his appearance in these

early years were much different than now

the first incarnation had ronald with

mangy hair wearing a tray of food on top

of his head like a hat

and the face makeup was about the same

with the red and white these first

commercials would be about ronald

mcdonald bumping into kids and all of

them going to mcdonald's as each of

these commercials would end with ronald

mcdonald skipping and jumping with

cheerful music playing in the background

the origin story of ronald mcdonald is

mildly disputed as mcdonald's never flat

out said who created the character but

most evidence points to the man who

first played ronald mcdonald willard scott

scott

willard scott played as bozo the clown

on television from 1959 to 1962.

bozo the clown was extremely popular at

the time and when scott was done being

bozo in 1963

he claimed that mcdonald's contacted him

requesting to play as a hamburger happy

clown in three television commercials

the original ronald mcdonald look would

last until

1966 when mcdonald's hired circus

performer coco the clown to redesign

ronald mcdonald's image to his classic

look that people see today

in 1965 ray kroc made himself president

of mcdonald's ray started expanding on

mcdonald's restaurants focusing on

opening new restaurants in the suburbs

of large cities close to where the

majority of most people lived in april 1965 mcdonald's was getting huge but as

1965 mcdonald's was getting huge but as money came in it kept going back out to

money came in it kept going back out to feed the growth and not much money for

feed the growth and not much money for extra costs for other endeavors

extra costs for other endeavors so this was the factor into why they

so this was the factor into why they went public selling shares of the

went public selling shares of the company at 22 dollars and 50 cents a

company at 22 dollars and 50 cents a piece

piece and also in 1965 this is when mcdonald's

and also in 1965 this is when mcdonald's switched from having employees cut

switched from having employees cut potatoes to make french fries to using

potatoes to make french fries to using frozen french fries instead
