The San Bernardino Market
Why Brands Are Investing Here
San Bernardino is the county seat and, genuinely, the birthplace of the modern fast-food industry — the original McDonald's opened here in 1948 — a market with deep history and a young, growing family population still underserved by traditional advertising.
