Take-Away with Sam Oches

Wendy’s CEO Todd Penegor


Listen Later

In this episode of Take-Away with Sam Oches, Sam talks with the CEO of $11 billion burger chain Wendy’s. Penegor shares how Wendy’s digital strategy is already paying massive dividends across the system and how breakfast — which launched just one week before the beginning of the pandemic in March 2020 — has been key to so much of the brand’s growth.

In this conversation, you’ll find out why: 

  • Mobile ordering is a huge win for the major QSRs
  • There’s always some white space out there for bigger chains, no matter their reach
  • Investing in digital requires a complete ecosystem built around convenience
  • The more consumers ordering digitally, the better
  • Value’s all relative in the midst of inflation
