How Wendy's 4 For $4 Changed Fast Food - Tasting Table
Briefly

In 2015, Wendy's introduced the 4 for $4 meal deal, transforming fast-food pricing strategies. This deal included a burger, nuggets, fries, and a drink, setting a new industry standard for value. Competitors, like Burger King and Carl's Jr., quickly adapted, creating similar offers to remain competitive. Despite its success, Wendy's indicated that the structure of the offer wouldn't be permanent, emphasizing the importance of value rather than fixed pricing. By 2018, Wendy's had expanded its choices, demonstrating a commitment to meeting consumer needs in a competitive market.
"We are very happy with the early results, and we are meeting a consumer need for a compelling value with a high quality, unique offering," Emil Brolick, Wendy's President and CEO.
"Now, will that always be 4 by $4? I will not share that with you," foreshadowed Emil Brolick in the November 2015 conference call.
