From humble beginnings to leading treat destination In 1979, entrepreneurs Geoff Davis and Phil Rogers opened the doors to their first treat business in a South Australian shopping centre. Word soon spread about the tiny store selling delicious ice cream sundaes and treats and, by lunchtime on the opening day, the centre’s mains power had blown as the store’s machinery struggled to keep up with customer demand. This extraordinary beginning was the start of a brand that has developed into one of the nation’s most recognised and well-loved franchises – Wendys. With more than three decades of successful franchising experience, the company has come a long way since those humble beginnings. Wendys now has over 250 store across Australia and New Zealand and has grown from a single store operation to a large franchise network. While the Wendys of today is very different to that first store, our franchisees are still motivated by one simple philosophy – to deliver the ultimate treat experience to every customer, every time. Yum-O!

When our doors opened for the first time in 2004 it was because we wanted to challenge the belief that burgers were bad. We were the David to the Goliath’s of the burger world, and we were fighting them with burgers that were both guilt-free and delicious. Today we're proud to plate up healthy burgers made with love. It’s what makes our burgers the solution to fast food and not another alternative. We work with local farmers and artisans to secure the freshest ingredients and we're proud to serve RSPCA Approved chicken and free-range beef, lamb and eggs. How we did it back then is how we still do it today, the Grill’d way, and what continues to make our burgers so special is not only the ingredients. It’s our people. The Grill’d team. They are the heart and soul of Grill’d. Without them, there is no us. The reason we get up every morning and put on our bandanas is not just to cook delicious healthy burgers. It's to open our doors to our guests - the extended Grill'd family - and create a positive environment that offers inclusivity, mateship, and community. We stand alone in serving up our signature healthy burgers, but the true secret recipe is our people. Shh, don’t tell anyone.
