Fast food chains like Wendy’s are aimed at expanding aggression in the UK.
Wendy’s is particularly focused on increasing its global presence since 2019, which has turned its attention to Europe for the first time in 40 years.
“We have a lot of safe places, and we are in contact with many potential ownership candidates in this market,” said Todd Benigor, CEO of Wendy.
He added that international expansion was necessary to increase its footprint in the world.

The company expects to have around 7,000 restaurants worldwide by the end of 2021 and 8,000 by the end of 2025.
Wendy’s looks at small, efficient designs that can help improve yields, motivating the company to create only one design Go straight.
It also plans to open 250 ghost kitchens in India.
