It will be open from 8 am to 12 am daily and plans to employ 45 employees from the Clinton area.
“We were among the first Wendy’s franchisees and opened our very first restaurant 50 years ago in Springfield, Missouri. It’s exciting to continue that journey here in Clinton,” said Mike Hamra, CEO of Hamra Enterprises. “Clinton has such a strong sense of community, and we’re thrilled to be part of it. Whether guests stop by to dine in, swing through the drive-thru, order ahead on the Wendy’s® app, or get delivery to their home or business, we want to make it easy for everyone to enjoy the food they love. Our new restaurant is designed with that in mind — giving our Clinton neighbors more ways to experience Wendy’s® their way. We’re proud to serve our new neighbors here in Clinton and across Worcester County.”
The Global Next Gen restaurant design includes a kitchen engineered for speed and efficiency and a building optimized to reflect today’s digital ordering preferences. It includes dedicated mobile and delivery pick-up points and an enhanced drive-thru design.
