00:12 I am overwhelmed. It's been an emotional rollercoaster.

00:18 Nine weeks of sheer hard work, commitment, dedication, just from the team, the contractors

00:25 and everyone who's been involved and I'm just so pleased to be here and to be able to offer

00:31 a great experience for our customers.

00:33 You mentioned experience, tell us what's kind of changed here in the restaurant?

00:37 So a lot's changed actually. The car park is probably the biggest transformational change

00:42 and for those customers that have used us before, it's quite a challenging journey

00:47 into the restaurant and what we've tried to create is really quite smooth, efficient experience.

00:53 We've got four electric vehicle charging points now. The journey throughout the car park is far smoother.

00:59 We have 42 click and serve bays, so you never ever need to leave your car if you want McDonald's food

01:05 brought to your car and an extensive amount of landscaping.

01:11 So yeah, it's just a lovely transformational change.

01:15 And then inside we've refurbished the whole of the dining area. Kitchen, back areas, crew areas,

01:23 training centre, so we've kind of set ourselves up for expansion and growth throughout the McDonald's system.

01:30 We've got a training centre downstairs for the 152 staff that we employ in this restaurant,

01:35 of which I think we should probably look to employ another 30 people.

01:41 And yeah, we've gone all out essentially to make sure that we've covered all the bases for what may come.
