McDonald’s hits Wendy’s with free Egg McMuffins

The burger chain is giving its popular sandwich away on Monday, which happens to be the first day of Wendy’s new breakfast.

The burger chain says it is fully staffed as it starts serving in the morning and expects strong sales this year.

Company executives promise more innovation as the chain pushes into more dayparts and different products.

The company is also slowing down on acquisitions as it looks to build up its profitability.

The chain has closed 107 units, with plans to reopen them with a counter-service model to save on labor.

The burger giant is starting a 2-for-$4 breakfast sandwich offer one week before Wendy’s national breakfast launch.

The company said the new product, introduced a month ago, has helped it regain some of the value it lost when it raised taco prices.
