the most successful works of this period. The Founder, which stands out as a well-laid-out project, processes the growth process
of McDonald's, one of the largest fast food restaurants of today, while revealing the human relationships that this process brings
out with all its reality. The purpose of this study is to explain the story of Mc Donald’s founding within The Founder and the
critical events in the growth of the business after its establishment.
