Registered letter from McDonald's France — Denis Hennequin · 20 October 1997
Overview: registered letter with acknowledgement of receipt sent by Denis Hennequin, chairman and chief executive of McDonald's France, to Bernard Collorafi, dated 20 October 1997.
Key points
The letter replies to a letter from Mr Collorafi of 3 October 1997 and criticises him for conduct described as hostile for several months: refusal to cooperate with neighbouring franchisees, communication through his lawyer and reluctance to allow the financial checks provided for by the lease-management agreements (location-gérance). The author reports further rejections of direct debits for fees from the companies SEBOL and LES PINS during October, which increase the companies' outstanding balance by 301,500 F, and recalls that McDonald's is not a bank. He demands that all financial information be made available at the audit scheduled for 27 October 1997 and disputes several meeting dates cited by his correspondent.
Significance
The document marks the rise in financial tensions and the shift to the judicial arena, a few months before proceedings were opened.
