What is Wendy Thomas' Net Worth?
Wendy Thomas is an American business woman who has a net worth of $100 million. Also known as Wendy Morse, Wendy Thomas is the daughter of the American businessman Dave Thomas, the founder of the Wendy's fast food chain.
Born in Pensacola Beach, Florida, Wendy Thomas graduated from the University of Florida and currently lives in Texas. She is most widely recognized as the daughter of Wendy's Restaurant founder, Dave Thomas, and it is her picture that appears on Wendy's packaging and promotional materials. She owned multiple Wendy's restaurants in Texas, until her father's death in 2002.
She and her siblings subsequently purchased additional restaurants in Ohio, as well. She currently owns approximately 30 Wendy's locations. Her father often appeared in Wendy's ads, and in 1989, she was heard in one spot, but not seen. In 2010, she began appearing in ads for the restaurant, in much the same manner as her father. The ads have since gone national, but were originally only aired in parts of the South and Midwest. In addition to her ownership duties with Wendy's, she also serves on the board of the Dave Thomas Foundation for Adoption.
