McDonald’s and Franchisees Investing Approximately $111 Million in Colorado to Modernize More than 140 Local Restaurants in 2018 & 2019

DENVER, Aug. 14, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Today, McDonald’s announced that the company and its franchisees are investing $111 million in Colorado throughout 2018 and 2019 on the construction and modernization of 140 McDonald’s restaurants, transforming the customer experience inside and outside the restaurant. In total, McDonald’s and franchisees are investing $6 billion to modernize most U.S. restaurants by 2020, including most restaurants in Colorado.

With this significant construction investment, the transformed restaurants will feature:  

  • Modernized dining rooms with globally and locally inspired décor, new furniture and refreshed exterior designs
  • Enhanced customer experience with digital self-order kiosks that make ordering and paying for a meal easier. Kiosks empower guests to browse the menu, find options and tailor their meal just the way they want. 
  • Remodeled counters allow for new table service that offers guests the opportunity to relax while their food is being made 
  • Bright and easy to read digital menu boards inside and at the drive through
  • New designated parking spots for curbside pick-up through mobile order and pay
  • Expanded McCafé counters and larger display cases

“This is an exciting time for McDonald’s and we’re proud to be investing nearly $111 million to provide a new experience, look and feel for guests at more than 140 McDonald’s locations across Colorado,” said Joe Johnson, Colorado McDonald’s Owner Operator. “We are also pleased that our modernization supports local architecture, engineering and construction jobs across the great state of Colorado.”

“The investments McDonald’s has made within the business has translated into more jobs for Coloradoans inside and outside of the restaurant,” says Senate President Kevin Grantham. “McDonald’s continues to be a leader in job creation and economic growth.”

In addition to the investments to modernize the restaurant, McDonald’s has also introduced McDelivery with Uber Eats at more than 5,000 US restaurants.
