McDonald’s is testing new value menu offerings in about one thousand nine hundred restaurants to counter slowing traffic.

The fast‑food giant announced the eight‑week test began in the last week of October, featuring mix‑and‑match bundles and fixed combinations across all day parts.

Franchisees representing about four thousand restaurants have added similar entry‑level bundles ahead of the formal test results, covering more than forty percent of the U.S. system.

The company plans to launch a national affordable menu program in early twenty twenty‑seven, using the test outcomes to determine the most effective structure.

Meanwhile, McDonald’s announced a multi‑year "NEXT" plan to spend eight point five billion dollars on restaurant upgrades, staff training, and technology through twenty thirty‑six, with about five billion dollars allocated through twenty thirty‑zero.
