McDonald's, the largest restaurant chain worldwide, partnered with Barranco to deploy a nationwide water filter system across 700 sites in 13 states. This extensive project, which had a 6-month timeline, was essential to maintaining the quality and consistency of water for food preparation and customer-facing needs. The system would be further expanded in 2025 to cover additional locations.
