McDonald’s Experiencing Global Technology Outage
Fast-food giant McDonald’s is currently facing a global technology outage that has impacted its restaurants worldwide. The issue has forced some locations to temporarily close their doors as they work to resolve the problem.
According to the company, the technology outage is not related to a cyberattack and is being addressed as quickly as possible. McDonald’s Japan has reported that many stores across the country are currently closed due to a system failure.
Downdetector, a website that tracks outages, has reported a spike in issues with the McDonald’s app on Friday morning. However, some locations in cities like Bangkok, Milan, and London have already reopened and are back up and running.
A McDonald’s spokesperson in Denmark confirmed that the technology failure has been resolved in the country. The owner of several McDonald’s restaurants in central Sweden explained that all McDonald’s restaurants are interconnected through a global network, which is causing the issue.
Despite the widespread impact of the technology outage, McDonald’s is working diligently to resolve the issue and get all of its restaurants back online. Customers are encouraged to check the status of their local McDonald’s before visiting, as some locations may still be closed.
As McDonald’s continues to work on resolving the technology outage, they assure customers that they are doing everything they can to minimize the impact and get back to serving up their famous burgers and fries as soon as possible.
