Are Drive-Thru-Only Restaurants the Future of Fast Food?
Wendy's (NASDAQ: WEN) couldn't have picked a worse time to roll out a new breakfast menu than last February: The pandemic closed down businesses and eliminated the need for anyone to stop in on their way to work.
Yet with the economy reopening and people reestablishing their morning routines, the breakfast daypart helped the fast-food chain notch the highest global same-restaurant sales growth in over 15 years.
So successful is the menu that Wendy's is developing an all-new type of restaurant that will help drive expansion, one that could point to the direction the rest of the industry should take.
