The American fast food chain specializing in hamburgers, sandwiches, and milkshakes, Wendy's, announced that it will soon close approximately 300 establishments.

In this regard, interim CEO Ken Cook stated that “if we analyze the current system, we see that some restaurants "They do not contribute to the brand image and harm the financial performance of franchisees. Our goal is to address and improve the situation of these restaurants," he said. With approximately 6,000 operating locations, the closures represent 5% of the company's establishments. The chain's decision is to improve its services with new equipment, operators, and technology. Finally, its latest report revealed that Wendy's, like other fast-food chains, has experienced a decline in sales, registering a 4.7% decrease in store sales and a 2.6% decrease in global sales.
