Limited-Run QSR Releases

Weekly Wingstop Drops Share a Taste of Drop Culture

Wingstop Drop is a new series that gives fans first access to flavors, offers, merch collabs and special releases, and it kicks off in just a few days. A fresh debut drops each week through the start of football season, beginning with Buy-One-Get-One free chicken sandwiches for a limited time.

The rise of weekly drops and rotating menus reflects a hunger for novelty, and Wingstop is keeping customers engaged with ever-changing, surprising, limited-time offerings. "Wingstop Drop is our way of bringing drop culture into our world of flavor," said Wingstop's Chief Revenue Officer, Mark Christenson, "It's made for the trend setters—the flavor cravers, the culture creators and the fans who know what's hot and want it first."
