why dont you just ask McDonalds or Starbucks?

Vietnam is a good example, (maybe China too) not sure if Starbucks specifically locate there, but there's been a lot of FDI and a rise in the service sector as well as rapid development over the last 30 years, whether they are linked is what you'll have to find out I guess.

I wouldn't argue that those two companies promote development fwiw, at least only marginally, I'm sure there's data somewhere showing how long a McDonald's worker has to work to afford one of their burgers in different countries, over here being 30 mins or so, and some countries being nearly a whole day. I'd more suggest the presence of McDonald's and Starbucks is a consequence of development and increased disposable incomes. Most development economists (well maybe not the neo-classical) would argue that the likes of McDonald's and Starbucks stunt development, look into inappropriate consumer goods.
