McDonald’s, the US fast-food chain has been subject to boycotts since franchisee Alonyal announced it would donate free meals to the Israeli military amid the Gaza war last year. For that, the franchise faced many obstacles from many countries including Pakistan.
However, in the development, McDonald’s has closed its 26-year-old outlet in Karachi amid boycott calls due to the Gaza genocide.
Not only social media users shared the news of McDonald’s closure but also McDonald’s official Facebook page which confirmed the closure of their Tariq Road outlet.
However, they mentioned relocating to a new location, without specifying the new address.
Many social media users have linked the closure of McDonald’s Karachi outlet to recent boycotts targeting the brand over its support for Israel.
Israel’s war on Gaza has meaningfully impacted its sales, particularly in the Middle East and Muslim-majority countries like Pakistan, Indonesia, and Malaysia.
