McDonald's sold about 75 burgers a second globally in 2021 (per Investing.com). With 86,400 seconds in a day, this comes to about 6.48 million burgers each day.
This equals nearly 2.4 billion burgers in just one year. However, this stat is over two years old as of August 2024, so getting exact numbers proves a bit elusive.
Given the factors that influence McDonald's daily sales, the number is likely to fluctuate regardless of the year, making it challenging to calculate the actual per-second sales.
