McDonald’s retains standalone scale while chef-led concepts gain visibility
McDonald’s remained the largest operator in standalone locations in 2025 in both outlet numbers and value sales, supported by a widespread network across Italian cities and by the combined strength of the McDonald’s and McCafé brands. McDonald’s continued to grow in 2025 through McDonald’s outlet expansion, while the McCafé store network remained unchanged.
