WEN

Wendy's operates fast-food restaurants that serve hamburgers, chicken sandwiches, salads, and the Frosty frozen dessert. The company runs about 5,969 restaurants in the United States and over 1,400 more in foreign countries. Most Wendy's locations are franchises, meaning other businesses own and operate them while paying Wendy's for the right to use the name and menu. Wendy's also owns some of the real estate where its restaurants are located.
