 In this case, I choose from one of the food and beverages companies that is currently
being discussed among millennials, especially the South of Jakarta, which is Taco Bell. Taco
Bell is a multinational corporation because they have a lot of franchise in around the world.

Taco Bell is a fast food chain restaurant with a family restaurant concept that serves
Tacos, Burritos, Quesadillas, and others.Taco Bell was founded in 1962 in Downey, California
by Glen Bell. This restaurant has been a franchise restaurant since 1978, and has since opened
branches all over the world. To date, Taco Bell has restaurants in many countries such as
Australia, Canada, Chile, China, Cyprus, Greece, Iceland, India, Mexico, Philippines, Poland,
Russia, Saudi Arabia, Singapore, Spain, South Korea, United Arab Emirates, United Kingdom,
Puerto Rico, Dominican Republic, Guam, Aruba, Costa Rica, Colombia, Ecuador, Panama,
United States and Indonesia.

The presence of foreign corporations in a country can bring direct or indirect benefits
to the host country. The benefits are increased investment, production capacity, demand for
labor, as well as exports which can encourage economic growth and increase tax revenue for
the government. Meanwhile, the indirect benefit is the existence of knowledge externalities
generated through non-market mechanisms into the economy of domestic companies. These
externalities can take the form of technology transfer, increased efficiency, and improved
managerial knowledge. In the literature, the indirect effect of the presence of foreign companies
is called the spillover effect. The spillover effect from foreign companies can be transmitted
through two channels, namely: intra-industry spillover (horizontal spillover) and inter-industry
spillover (vertical spillover) which is further divided through forward spillover and backward
spillover.
