Dave Thomas opened the first Wendy’s restaurant with an unwavering commitment to serve fresh food, at a fair price, in a comfortable atmosphere. More than 50 years later, doing the right thing, in the right way, is still what guides the company and our approach to corporate responsibility: Good Done Right.
Our Focus Areas
Food
We are serious about providing fresh food that is high quality, safe, traceable and from responsible sources.
People
Respect, equality and fair treatment for our team members, franchisees and partners is a central part of our business. And so is giving something back.
Footprint
We are on a journey to reduce our environmental impact, and we’re committed to measuring and reporting on our progress along the way.
We are for our community
The foundation of Wendy’s long-term success includes core values that we embrace every day in our restaurants and restaurant support centers around the world.
Wendy’s core values, including “Quality is our Recipe,” “Do the Right Thing” and “Give Something Back,” were created by our founder Dave Thomas more than 40 years ago. They are timeless guideposts for us all.
Consistent with these values, we believe it is our responsibility to focus on Wendy’s business success, while at the same time caring for our customers, employees, communities and the world around us.
Community Involvement
Our community involvement has been particularly focused on children, on their potential, and on helping them develop that potential through enhanced education opportunities, into the realization of their dreams; whatever those might be.
We’re proud of our two main education-based initiatives: the “Mission:Educate Bahamas” foundation, featuring “TuneIn To Reading,” and the “Wendy’s & Coca Cola Bright Minds, Bright Future Scholarship Program.
We anticipate that these long serving programs will allow Wendy’s Bahamas to make a real and lasting difference for thousands of children throughout The Bahamas for decades to come.
