Since 1956, McDonald's has partnered with the Taylor Company, an Illinois-based manufacturer, for its ice cream machines, leaving only the Taylor Company with the "right to repair" them.

McDonald’s often maligned, seemingly perennially-broken ice cream machines could soon become a thing of the past.

McDonald's franchises with ice cream machines made by Taylor Company can only get employees of the business to fix the apparatus, leading to delays.

Now, machines should be up and running sooner since McDonald’s locations will be able to call on third parties instead of waiting on Taylor.

Donald Trump announced plans to make sure McDonald’s ice cream machines work again. The Biden administration actually made it happen.
