"It started back in 1989 when Wendy's became the first QSR to introduce"

QSR stands for quick-service restaurant, the category of eateries focused on fast, low-cost meals such as fast-food chains and counter-serve outlets. Investors watch QSRs because their performance reflects how well a chain converts steady customer traffic into profit through pricing, speed, location and franchise economics — think of them as retail stores for food where foot traffic, consistent unit costs and repeat customers determine whether an investment grows or stalls.
