Over the last few years, we have worked extensively on making Wendy’s® accessible to wider audiences PAN-India, and the opening of this first store at the airport is a milestone in that journey. Our focus is on bringing the same taste and experience to 30+ million travellers who pass through Kempegowda International Airport, as Wendy’s® is known worldwide”
