30 Years Strong: Pita Pit Marks Milestone with Fresh Innovation and Takeout Staples Canadians Love
››
In 1995, a small pita shop opened its doors in Kingston, Ontario, with a simple yet powerful mission: serve up fresh, customizable meals that fuel people on the go. Fast forward 30 years, and Pita Pit has grown into a beloved Canadian brand with 242 locations nationwide—and a reputation for revolutionizing the way we think about quick, feel-good eats.
To celebrate its 30th anniversary, Pita Pit is rolling out its annual Peel & Win contest (running from April 15 to May 14), offering over $100,000 in prizes to thank customers for decades of loyalty.
But for the takeout crowd, the real gift is the menu.
