Wendy’s is an American fast food restaurant chain founded by Dave Thomas on November 15, 1969, in Columbus, Ohio. As of March 2019, Wendy’s was the world’s third largest hamburger fast food chain with 6,711 locations, following Burger King and McDonald’s.
On April 24, 2008, the company announced a merger with Triarc Companies Inc., a publicly traded company and the owner of Arby’s. Despite the new ownership, Wendy’s headquarters remained in Dublin, Ohio.
Wendy’s menu consists primarily of hamburgers, chicken sandwiches, Frosty desserts, French fries and soft drinks. Since phasing out their Super Value Menu in 2007, the chain has instead focused on its “Right Price Right Size” value menu introduced in late 2004. Promoted as a more premium value menu than competitors’, it featured several higher-priced items.
In March 2006, Wendy’s introduced a “Five for $5” value menu that included five popular items for $5. The promotion was later expanded to include more items such as chicken nuggets and chili.
