WESTON, WI (WSAU) – The Wendy’s in Weston has closed.
The fast food restaurant shut down with little notice on Saturday. The restaurant’s sign has been taken down, and the building’s windows are boarded up. A sign on the door says “Sorry for the inconvenience. The store is permanently closed.”
There was no advanced notice to the public. One manager said the news came as a surprise to the employees there.
There are no other Wendy’s locations in the Wausau area. It’s unclear if Wendy’s will reopen at a different location.
The same Wendy’s location had staffing problems in the past which limited its operating hours. Several years ago a group of workers didn’t show up for their shifts, demanding better pay.
