MCDONALD'S SHUTS 30 PER CENT OF OUTLETS IN JAPAN DUE TO CASH REGISTER GLITCH

TOKYO, July 19 (Bernama-Kyodo) -- Around 30 per cent of McDonald's outlets across Japan have suspended operations due to a cash register glitch, the Japanese unit of the fast food chain operator said on Friday, Kyodo news agency reported.

McDonald's Co (Japan) said it is investigating the cause and that it is not clear when services can be resumed.

The closures came as some stores suspended mobile orders via the fast food chain's official app amid a possible system issue.

The latest disruption follows a large-scale service outage that affected McDonald's outlets in Japan and other countries in March.

Customers were left unable to complete cashless transactions or make mobile orders.
