The franchise holder of McDonald's in Kazakhstan says it has been forced to suspend operations under the brand's name due to unspecified supply chain issues. Food Solutions KZ Ltd. said in a statement on January 5 that it will transform its 24 outlets in the Central Asian nation into a new restaurant chain. In November, the company suspended its operations, citing supply chain issues sparked by Russia's ongoing unprovoked invasion of Ukraine launched in February last year.
