Naturally, each of them has its own feature. Here are a few examples.

IKEA – every product in its shops may appear only if the price is agreed beforehand. It’s not about a new production. For example, the IKEA managers set the price on a sofa.

There are two special features of the company: its focus on ecological production and national identity. The shop may be located in different countries, but there must be 1) books or brochures in Swedish. 2) A separate information about the naturalness of goods, eco-packages, etc.

Each of us knows McDonald’s as a fast-food establishment. The term “Fast-food” is usually associated with fast service and fast preparation of intermediate goods. In this scope McDonald’s has lots of achievements, but in can’t be considered as a champion. Fast-food industry, referring to the managers of McDonald’s, should have specific conditions in its establishments so customers won’t sit there for a long time.
