The Wendy’s Story
First of all, yes, Wendy is a real person, and a pretty special one, being the daughter of our founder Dave Thomas. Today, she is one of the most involved and successful franchise owners in the Wendy’s enterprise. We think Dave would be proud. Back in 1969, he looked around at all other hamburger joints and was like, "Nah. People deserve better." At the time, other quick-service restaurants were using frozen beef and mass-producing food. Not Dave! His approach of serving fresh, made-to-order hamburgers changed the game. He didn’t-stop & wouldn’t-stop his commitment to making customers happy, that drives everything we do today.
