McDonald’s buying back its branches in Israel has brought attention to the franchise company Alonyal and its CEO Omri Padan.
The decision follows a decline in global sales due to a boycott over perceived support for Israel in its conflict with Hamas.
Omri Padan has faced controversy before, notably for refusing to open a McDonald’s branch in an Israeli settlement in the West Bank.
The recent buyback deal has stirred mixed reactions, with some questioning its implications.
McDonald’s expressed commitment to the Israeli market, while Padan expressed optimism for the future.
