Wendy’s was built in 1993 by a group of Vernal businessman, one of whom had a relative in the business who said Vernal would be a great fit for a Wendy’s.
Wendy’s in Vernal opened on July 10, 1993 during the Dinosaur Round-up Rodeo. The community had highly anticipated the opening and the sidewalks were lined with customers waiting to enter. We will be celebrating our 30th birthday, July 2023 and can honestly say we have enjoyed every minute.
The best part of the business is the community in which we serve and the opportunity we have to help people grow and succeed. We are involved in the community via Charitable Friends of Ashley Valley where we enjoy partaking in Dino-Soar days, Hotel Haunt, Freedom Fest, and many other community involved activities. The Dinosaur Round-up Rodeo is very close to our heart and we actively participate in this event in many capacities every year. We love being involved with many of our local schools including Davis & Maeser Elementary schools, Terra Academy, and Uintah High School. We support our Bus Drivers and many other small activities in the area.
We feel as a business, our most important role in our community is to help make it better. We enjoy hiring individuals to learn skills and responsibilities and provide them footing for life’s opportunities. It’s always a pleasure to have children and grandchildren from previous employees. We take pride in hiring some of the most loved people by the way of special needs community.
We are grateful to be recognized by the Chamber for our efforts and appreciate the local support we receive in so many ways. Thanks again for your support.
The Public Relations Committee of the Vernal Area Chamber of Commerce is very pleased to present Business of the Month to Wendy’s for their longevity and continued commitment and service to our community.
