CEO Todd Penegor said on an earnings call today that Wendy's will probably experience a"couple of weeks of challenging tightness that we'll have to work through" before getting back to normal.might be"temporarily limited at some restaurants" because of the national meat shortage. Though its delivery schedule remains unchanged, supply has been tight because beef suppliers across North America face production challenges during the pandemic.
Penegor acknowledged that certain items will be removed from menus from"time to time" during the shortage. He also noted that while some restaurants aren't displaying beef on their online menus, it doesn't necessarily mean the restaurant is completely out of beef. Restaurants have the ability to customize their menus, and some have chosen not to display beef items to prevent dissatisfaction since supplies are low.
