The McDonald's network resumes the work of a number of establishments in the South and East of Ukraine. This will take place during March-April.

The next stage of recovery requires the resumption of supplies. The organization of logistics takes more time, the company explained in a statement.

Where will McDonald's restaurants open?

First of all, they are considering the possibility of opening restaurants in Odessa – at the end of March, and in the Dnieper – at the end of April. In addition, institutions want to open in a number of other cities.

True, the plans of the company may change. It depends on the situation in the situation in cities and regions. Restaurants will operate in accordance with enhanced security protocols that have been introduced in all open establishments in Ukraine.
