McDonald's Sales Decline by 70% in Egypt

An anonymous employee at McDonald's offices in Egypt revealed that the chain's sales in October and November have declined by at least 70% compared to the same period last year, as reported by Reuters.

The decrease in sales coincides with widespread calls for a boycott in Egypt and globally, prompted by the ongoing genocidal war in Gaza, Palestine. Numerous Egyptians are opting for local alternatives, expressing concern over multinational companies’ support of the Israeli occupation. McDonald’s is specifically listed on the Boycott, Divestment, and Sanctions Movement in Egypt.
