Powering digital growth for Arcos Dorados

Thriving in a digital-first landscape

As digital marketplaces and delivery platforms expanded rapidly, Arcos Dorados encountered rising competition that extended beyond traditional brick-and-mortar restaurants.

Managing the McDonald’s brand across 21 countries with thousands of locations, the company required a scalable, data-driven ecosystem to stay competitive and maintain relevance. Today, it operates around 2,500 restaurants throughout the region, along with approximately 3,000 to 3,400 dessert kiosks.



Building a real-time digital ecosystem

Together with DXC Technology, Arcos Dorados developed a digital sales platform that processes sales quickly, keeps systems running smoothly, and turns data into meaningful insights. This allows the business to grow its digital channels and continually improve how it serves customers.


"With DXC, we’ve built a digital ecosystem that gives us near real-time sales visibility and significantly richer data. This foundation is critical as we move toward advanced analytics and AI. Their reliability and support have been key to our digital growth journey."
