McDonald’s Ukraine Ltd., which operates the McDonald’s fast food restaurant chain in Ukraine, has invested UAH 4.84 billion in expansion and modernization in 2022-2025, the company’s press service told Interfax-Ukraine.
In 2025, the company opened 12 new restaurants and renovated five existing ones. The chain appeared for the first time in the Zakarpattia region – in Uzhhorod and Mukachevo, as well as in Hatne, Kyiv region, and in Lypyny, near Lutsk. In addition, the first McDonald’s restaurant with a sustainable design concept began operating in Lviv. In total, the company has opened 33 new restaurants since 2022, expanding the chain by more than 25% during this period.
At the same time, McDonald’s continued to work on the sustainability of the chain: the share of restaurants equipped with generators increased to over 95%, which supports the operation of establishments during power outages.
The number of customers in 2025 increased by 17%. The chain’s customer satisfaction level in 2025 rose to 98.3% compared to 96.7% in 2024. Throughout the year, the company expanded its offerings and adapted its menu to current consumer demands, in particular, bringing back breakfast items and launching new value-added offers.
The company continues to implement measures aimed at the rational use of resources and improving waste management efficiency. In 2025, the chain sent more than 2,700 tons of waste for recycling and continued to gradually reduce its use of plastic.
A separate area of development was the digitalization of services. During the year, the company improved its mobile app, expanded its personalized voucher program, and continued to introduce self-service terminals in all establishments. Currently, 85% of orders in restaurants are placed through self-service terminals, the number of registered users of the mobile app has increased by 44.5%, and the new “Mobile Order” feature has generated over 100,000 orders in its first two months of operation.
Along with the development of its business, the company continued to support social initiatives in cooperation with the Ronald McDonald House Charities in Ukraine. In 2025, McDonald’s customers participated in charity campaigns in the chain’s restaurants more than 1 million times, raising nearly UAH 28 million to support the work of family rooms and the construction of Ukraine’s first Ronald McDonald House on the grounds of the Okhmatdyt National Children’s Specialized Hospital in Kyiv.
In 2026, McDonald’s plans to continue expanding its network and strengthening its presence in the regions of Ukraine. Earlier this year, the company opened two new restaurants in Irpin and Kyiv.
The first McDonald’s restaurant in Ukraine opened on May 24, 1997, in Kyiv. McDonald’s currently employs nearly 11,000 Ukrainians and has 138 restaurants, of which 123 are currently operating in 42 locations.
