In a country where average earnings are less than £50 per month, the number of people willing to spend more than £2 on a burger and chips was always going to be limited.
"In other countries like England or the US McDonald's is a cheap option, but here you can buy a burger for two Bolivianos (£0.17; $0.27)," said Edson Ribero, chef at a local fast-food chain that sells pizzas and steak sandwiches for less than £1.
"This is why McDonald's failed. It was not competitive in the market."
Quoting: SheldonReturns Thank you. Not to mention the cultural problem noted in the OP, where the majority indigenous population aren't welcome in restaurants (been there, seen the signs on the doors).
