Mcdonalds India Supply Chain

To ensure this, McDonalds developed local businesses, which can supply it highest quality products. Today, McDonalds India works with 38 different suppliers on a long term basis and several other stand alone restaurants for its various other requirements. McDonald’s distribution centres in India came in the following order: Noida and Kalamboli (Mumbai) in 1996, Bangalore in 2004, and the latest one in Kolkata (2007). McDonald's entered its first distribution partnership agreement with Radha Krishna Foodland, a part of the Radha Krishna Group engaged in food-related service businesses.

The association goes back to July 1993, when it studied the nuances of McDonald's operations and requirements for the Indian market. As distribution centres, the company was responsible for procurement, the quality inspection programme, storage, inventory management, deliveries to the restaurants and data collection, recording and reporting. Value-added services like shredding of lettuce, re-packing of promotional items continued since then at the centres playing a vital role in maintaining the integrity of the products throughout the entire 'cold chain'. Cold Chain was one of the unique concepts of McDonalds supply chain in India, on which it had spent more than six years to get the system into place.

This system brought about a veritable revolution, immensely benefiting the farmers at one end and enabling customers at retail counters get the highest quality food products, absolutely fresh and at great value. Through its unique cold chain, McDonalds has been able to both cut down on its operational wastage, as well as maintain the freshness and nutritional value of raw and processed food products.

Popular An Essay as a Work of Art An Essay as a Work of ArtAuthor: Susan Hutchings  I imagine that none of you have ever looked at your essay in the same way that you look at a painting or other work of art. I would like you to consider your essay in this way. The old saying that first impressions count still holds true. Imagine the examiner as an antique’s dealer looking at a table. If the table is dirty, scratched, misshapen, the dealer will be loathe to examine the table in more detail.
