Resumen

La cadena de restauración fast food McDonald’s mantiene una línea de productos, un tipo de servicio dado y una estética en sus establecimientos que permanece invariable a nivel mundial. Sin embargo, resulta interesante conocer si el factor cultural de los clientes de McDonald’s, afecta a la formación de su valor de la experiencia. Se ha distinguido entre cuatro nacionalidades diferentes: española, turca, búlgara e italiana. Los resultados arrojan luz al enfoque empresarial de McDonald’s, en cuanto a asignación de recursos y estrategias que brindan mejor servicio a los clientes jóvenes de los diferentes países abordados en este estudio.
