In an exciting development for food enthusiasts and job seekers alike, the Freeport Area of Bataan (FAB) is about to welcome a globally renowned culinary giant: McDonald’s.

The groundbreaking ceremony, held under the watchful eye of Authority of the Freeport Area of Bataan (AFAB) Administrator and CEO Mohammed Hussein P. Pangandaman, marked the official commencement of this much-anticipated venture.

The iconic golden arches of McDonald’s are set to grace the picturesque landscape of the Freeport Area of Bataan.

The tantalizing aroma of sizzling burgers, crispy fries, and frosty milkshakes will soon waft through the air, inviting hungry patrons to indulge in their favorite comfort foods.

Behind this culinary coup stands the Franc Food Corporation, a dynamic player in the food industry. With a bold investment of 50 million pesos, they are breathing life into the dream of a McDonald’s outlet within the FAB. This strategic move not only promises delectable meals but also brings with it a significant economic boost. The anticipated influx of customers and the creation of 100 job opportunities underscore the positive impact this venture will have on the local workforce.

The construction wheels are already in motion, with a 3-month timeline set for the completion of the McDonald’s outlet. Bulldozers hum, cement mixers churn, and architects meticulously plan the layout. The anticipation is palpable as the FAB community eagerly awaits the grand opening. Will it be the classic Big Mac or the spicy McChicken that steals the show? Only time will tell.

Administrator and CEO Mohammed Hussein P. Pangandaman envisions more than just a fast-food joint. His vision extends to a thriving FAB economy, where businesses flourish, families thrive, and the scent of prosperity hangs in the air. With the arrival of McDonald’s, he takes another step toward transforming the Freeport Area of Bataan into a hub of culinary delight and economic vitality.
