McDonald’s was hit by a system failure Friday that closed restaurants and disrupted online and app orders around the world, including in the United States, Australia, Japan, China's Hong Kong, and the United Kingdom. Many McDonald's shops in Japan stopped taking in-person and mobile customer orders because of a system disruption, a spokesperson at McDonald's Holdings Company Japan said, adding that the company was working to restore operations soon. Japanese walking past a restaurant in Tokyo said they were surprised, given that they never hear of such system outages occuring at the hamburger giant. The outage adds to a shaky start to the year for McDonald’s. During its latest earnings presentation last month, the company said the war in the Middle East was hurting its business and would likely continue to do so. Like other American brands, it has been hit by boycotts in several markets in the region. Editor: Zou __________________ ShanghaiEye focuses on producing top-quality contents.
