  • Just past his one-year mark as Wendy's ( WEN) CEO, Kirk Tanner is leaning on more than square burgers to add some sizzle to the 55-year-old restaurant chain's stock price.

The article from AOL Finance discusses Wendy's CEO Todd Penegor's comments on the company's strategy to enhance its menu offerings, particularly focusing on the introduction of thick-cut bacon. Penegor highlighted that the thick-cut bacon, which was introduced in 2021, has been well-received by customers, leading to its expansion across more menu items. This move is part of Wendy's broader initiative to improve food quality and customer satisfaction, aiming to differentiate itself in the fast-food market by offering premium ingredients. The CEO also mentioned that this initiative aligns with consumer trends towards higher quality and more indulgent food experiences, even in a fast-food setting. Additionally, the article touches on how Wendy's is adapting to economic pressures like inflation by focusing on value and quality rather than just price, ensuring that customers feel they are getting a premium product for their money.
