28-year old Jade Colin from New Orleans has made history as the youngest Black woman to ever become a McDonald's franchise owner. While in college, she started her career as an employee working the night shift at a local McDonald's, and after years of earning promotions and awards, she decided to purchase her very own franchise. She had a good example to follow from her entrepreneurial parents who purchased their first McDonald’s franchise in 2010. Jade applied for the Next Generation program for children of McDonald’s owners. After finishing that intensive two-year training program, she became a manager of her parent's franchise.
