McDonald’s domestic troubles aren’t exactly new. Competitors, including Pizz Hut and Taco Bell, began nibbling at McDonald’s market share in the late eighties.【R1】______There’s even evidence that McDonald’s has been slipping in areas it once dominated. A 1995 Restaurants and Institutions Choice in Chains survey of 2849 adults gave McDonald’s low marks on food quality, value, service and cleanliness. 【R2】______
【R3】______Put simply, because it could. After all, as a company, and a stock, McDonald’s is really an international story. Its global operations in 96 countries are the real attraction, feeding 47% of the company’s $30 billion sales and 54% of profits. 【R4】______
Brisk overseas business, however, has only magnified the chain’s U.S. blues. 【R5】______
McDonald’s started hawking Extra Value Meals in 1991, largely to keep up with Taco Bell’s value pricing.【R6】______and "the super-low price promotions weren’t driving customers into the store any longer," notes David Adelman, a Dean Witter Reynolds analyst.
So the new, adult-oriented Deluxe line is not only supposed to win back older chowhounds; it’s also aimed at bumping prices back up.【R7】______it’s a lot of pressure to put on a bunch of burgers, especially given the problems McDonald’s has had expanding its menus in recent years.
At least some industry experts question whether McDonald’s may be making a fundamental marketing mistake with its new emphasis on adult customers. 【R8】______
A. And within the burger segment, where growth in the nineties has slowed to about 5% annually, Arch reveals like Burger King have managed sales gains for three years running
B. McDonald’s found that discounting — a tactic the company tried reluctantly — failed to revive per-store sales.
C. So why did McDonald’s wait so long to attack its domestic problem head-on.
D. For the most part, McDonald’s has those unsatiated foreign appetites to thank for its 126 consecutive quarters of record earnings.
E. There is a chance, after all, that the "grownup" theme — including commercial that show kids grimacing at the sight of an Arch Deluxe — could backfire.
F. But by mid-1995, the value concept had evolved to straight discounting.
G. The chicken, fish, and beef sandwiches cost about 20% more than "classic menu" items.
H. Top honors instead went to Wendy’s.
