“This idea was born from Arby’s desire to innovate during a difficult time to best serve our customers,” Patrick Schwing, Arby’s chief marketing officer, said in a statement emailed to FOX Business. “Through this offering, we are able to provide a product that not only have our guest repeatedly asked for, but we can do it in an easy, socially-distant drive-thru setting.”
“We are excited to see a positive response thus far and look forward to using this test to determine if and when the program can be scaled to additional markets,” Schwing added.
Arby’s is owned by Inspire Brands, which also owns Buffalo Wild Wings, Sonic and Jimmy John’s.
