They were split in 72 but A&W is over 100 years old so they were under the same umbrella for most of their history.

Things get crazy when you realize how long ago 1972 was.

First restaurant founded in 1923. 1972-1923 = 49 years. 2024-1972 = 52 years.

Sources say they were not, in fact, under the same umbrella for most of their history.
