McDonald's Just Announced the Closure of Hundreds of Locations

The chain is prioritizing drive-thrus while cutting locations in retail environments.

The days when malls reigned supreme are behind us, and it seems like the convenience of built-in fast food restaurants inside large retail stores may be disappearing, too. McDonald's just announced the closure of 200 restaurants nationwide, more than half of which are smaller units located inside Walmart stores.

Thank you.

retail environments are places where people go to buy goods like dresses, eat food, and so on.
