Wendy's Closes Horsham Township Location

The Horsham closure comes as part of an effort by the company to shut underperforming locations across the country.

HORSHAM TOWNSHIP, PA — The Wendy's restaurant that has been in operation for over a decade has closed permanently, the casualty of a move by its parent company to shutter hundreds of eateries across the country.

Wendy's — one of the nation's largest fast food chains — expects to close approximately 5 to 6 percent of its locations nationwide, including 28 restaurants that closed during the fourth quarter of 2025.

With 5,969 locations across the country reported at the end of last year, that means nearly 360 Wendy's restaurants could shutter during the first half of this year.

The Wendy's on 415 Easton Road — which sat at the corner of Route 611 and Horsham Road — recently closed and is no longer on the company's list of locations, according to the company's website.

The closure announcement comes on the heels of Wendy's shuttering 240 locations nationwide in 2024.

"By closing consistently underperforming restaurants, we are enabling our franchisee partners to increase focus on locations with the greatest potential for profitable growth," Wendy's acting CEO Ken Cook said in an earnings call with investors recently.
