Former McDonald’s restaurants in Russia are facing a shortage of French fries due to a poor harvest and Western sanctions over Ukraine.
The shortage has been linked to a poor harvest in 2021 as well as the company’s inability to import potatoes from several countries due to Western sanctions.
The company is hoping to see the return of the deep-fried potato slices to the menu of its restaurants in autumn, with the start of the new harvest year.
