when did yokosuka naval base get mcdonald's

McDonald’s at Yokosuka Naval Base was operating by 1994 at the latest ; a 1995 newspaper article says it had posted $4.8 million in sales in 1994 , which means the restaurant was already there then. I couldn’t verify the exact opening date from the available source, but the safest answer is that it was in place no later than 1994.

What I found

  • A 1995 article explicitly refers to “the McDonald’s at the naval base in Yokosuka, Japan,” and gives its 1994 sales figure.
  • That confirms the location was already operating in 1994.

Practical read

  • If you’re asking for the first year it appeared , the evidence I found only supports “by 1994” , not the exact launch date.
  • If you want the exact opening year, that would require a more specific historical source than the one available here.
