## Key points

- Wendy’s is testing thicker bacon and a richer Frosty.
- A refreshed menu is planned for 2027.
- Franchisees may stop serving breakfast if it loses money.

## Summary

Wendy’s is upgrading several core menu items and revisiting breakfast as part of a multiyear plan to revive sales after seven consecutive quarters of decline. The changes aim to improve food quality and value while giving franchisees more flexibility over services that are not performing well.

The chain is testing substantially thicker, crispier bacon and a richer, creamier Frosty, with a fully refreshed menu planned for 2027. US sales fell 5.7% in the quarter ending 27 September, while international sales dipped 2.2%; nearly 300 US restaurants have closed in recent months. Franchisees may drop breakfast if it is unprofitable, and the wider “Dave’s Way” plan covers menu, marketing, operations, digital experience and restaurant performance.
