Our History
"People think of us as a hamburger company, but we’re really in the people business." ~ Jill Dana
Hassan and Jill Dana were afforded the opportunity to purchase the Amarillo Area McDonald's restaurants in 2004 after finding great success with their first McDonald's restaurants in Connecticut.
Although Amarillo was quite a culture shock compared to the East coast, they quickly fell in love with the community, making the decision to purchase the restaurants within a day.
Immediately following their move to the Panhandle, the Dana's and their two sons felt at right at home, quickly settling in to their new life. "It's a very nice lifestyle," says Hassan. "People are always hospitable."
​
The Dana's have always credited most of their success to their involvement in the community and to their wonderful team members, of which they have more than 700 at 15 stores throughout the region.
​
Today, Hassan and Jill's son, Osman, operates the business, continuing the family's long-standing tradition of taking great care of their community, their customers and their McDonald's family.
