Economy

I remember the Wendy's fiasco that came from "where's the beef" -- they jumped a huge amount in market share and tried to capitalize by building a ton of new stores without properly researching the location to see if it would support the new stores.

As a result, Dave Thomas had to sell off the now floundering Wendy's.

Did they open far too many stores, too quickly without proper research to see if it was sustainable?

Always wonder how corporate stores do versus franchises after working for both McOpco (corporate stores) and franchises of McDonalds when I was in college. Can be huge differences in what is happening.
