Description

Multinational fast-food chain McDonald's has announced to recruit a total of 100 new employees for its restaurants in the Stockholm region. A recruitment day with over 1000 participants was held on February 18th in Stockholm.

This business expansion is reported to be a result of the tax reform in Sweden which has lowered the value added tax on restaurant food.
