Strategic Challenge
Wendy’s opted for Google Cloud as a strategic move to disrupt the industry and foster an innovative culture within their team. Embracing a platform engineer model, they focused on uniting their efforts toward one team and one goal - offering exceptional services and equipping developers with accelerated tooling to boost productivity and drive value creation.
To accelerate their digital growth and take ownership of internal platforms and applications, Wendy’s faced a significant challenge. They sought additional expertise and implementation skills across a diverse range of technologies. Qarik stepped in as a valuable partner, accelerating Wendy’s journey and leaving a lasting impact on their ability to deliver software rapidly and efficiently.
About Wendy's
Wendy's® was founded in 1969 by Dave Thomas in Columbus, Ohio. Dave built his business on the premise, “Quality is our Recipe®,” which remains the guidepost of the Wendy’s system. Wendy’s is best known for its made-to-order square hamburgers, using fresh, never frozen beef*, freshly-prepared salads with hand-chopped lettuce, and other signature items like chili, baked potatoes and the Frosty® dessert.
The Wendy’s Company (NASDAQ: WEN) is committed to doing the right thing and making a positive difference in the lives of others. This is most visible through the Company’s support of the Dave Thomas Foundation for Adoption® and its signature Wendy’s Wonderful Kids® program, which seeks to find every child in the North American foster care system a loving, forever home. Today, Wendy’s and its franchisees employ hundreds of thousands of people across approximately 7,000 restaurants worldwide with a vision of becoming the world’s most thriving and beloved restaurant brand.
