Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

McDonald's had to teach the farmers, bakers, and suppliers how to meet the company's standards for producing their products. This suggests that the supply channel was undeveloped in Russia, and McDonald's had to work on developing these channels to meet its needs. This is not an example of corporate social responsibility, as there is no indication that McDonald's was motivated by ethical concerns rather than business obligations. Similarly, there is no evidence of development partnerships or late-mover manipulation, as the scenario presents McDonald's as taking the initiative to establish its supply chain.
