According to the market-product grid, the largest potential market segment is the medium market (2) of students living in apartments. This segment is twice the size of the small market (1) of students living in dormitories and four times the size of the small market of day commuters (0.5). It is also likely to have more discretionary income and therefore be a more attractive market for a restaurant like Wendy's. The other options - students who are day or night commuters or faculty/staff members - have smaller market sizes and may be less likely to be regular customers of a fast-food restaurant on campus.
