Dublin, Ohio — The Wendy’s Company plans to enter Brazil this month, with plans for significant restaurant expansion over time. This growth will be driven through Wendy’s Brazil, a joint venture formed in 2015 between affiliates of Infinity Services and Starboard, one of Wendy’s® largest U.S. franchisees, and a subsidiary of The Wendy’s Company.
