Darrell van Ligten, President, International, at The Wendy’s Company, said: “Georgia is a dynamic market with long-term growth potential for the Wendy’s brand, and it plays an important role in our continued expansion in Eastern Europe. We’re privileged to have the opportunity to team with a strong, highly capable organisation like The Wissol Group, which shares our passion for quality and exceptional customer service.”
