Global fastfood giant McDonald’s Philippines continues ramp up its efforts to do better for the environment with the opening of its 700th store, which is also its fifth flagship Green & Good store in the country.

McDonald’s 700th store in Nuvali, Laguna is aimed strengthening the company’s commitment to environmental sustainability, according to McDonald’s Philippines president and CEO Kenneth Yang.

“Our goal is to continue to test and learn alternative solutions in how we operate our restaurants,” Yang said.

“With every Green & Good store that we open, we can determine and integrate better green building and utility-efficient solutions in more of the restaurants that we will open in the coming years,” he added.

McDonald’s Green & Good initiative is the company’s commitment to do better for the environment by equipping its restaurants with sustainable restaurant innovations with its use of green building and utility-efficient solutions like solar rooftops and lamp posts, grid-tied solar photovoltaic systems, a rainwater harvesting tank, variable refrigerant flow aircon system, among others, that help in the reduction of emissions.

The newest Green & Good store has a bike & dine facility and a dedicated bike repair station to cater to the needs of the growing cycling community of Nuvali.

Another McDonald’s Green &Good store is set to open in Sta. Monica in Commonwealth, Quezon City on December 30.

The other McDonald’s Green & Good stores are located in UN Del Pilar (Manila), Shaw Boulevard Wack-Wack (Mandaluyong), Mambugan (Antipolo), and Delos Reyes (Tagaytay).
