History

The Baconator was introduced in April 2007 as part of a "back to basics" reorganization by Wendy's new CEO Kerrii Anderson.cite web |url=http://www.nytimes.com/2007/11/24/business/24interview.html?ei=5088&en=88faae66d331c09a&ex=1353560400&partner=rssnyt&emc=rss&pagewanted=print |title=A Turnaround Plan That Includes Baconators |author=Andrew Martin |publisher=the New York Times |date=2007-11-24 |accessdate=2007-12-11 |quote=The company has improved its marketing, with quirky “red wig” television ads, and it has introduced a variety of products like the hefty Baconator sandwich, she says.] The addition of the product is part of a push to add menu items that appeal to 18-34 year old demographic and expand late night sales. This product and others, coupled with a new advertising program, contributed to a slight up-tick in store sales of approximately 11% during the period of five fiscal quarters ending in October 2007. As part of the introduction, the Baconator became a numbered value meal item in the US and Canada, with the number varying by market area.
