Redberry Restaurants Announces Agreement to Build 200 Taco Bell Restaurants in Canada
“Canadians to Live Más”
That’s the clarion call from Redberry Restaurants after announcing an unprecedented expansion plan of 200 Taco Bell restaurants in Canada over the next eight years.
Recognized as one of Canada’s fastest-growing restaurant companies, Redberry currently owns and operates 14 Taco Bell locations across Ontario, and intention to build an additional 200 locations across Canada is a strategic precedent.
The expansion will more than double the existing Canadian Taco Bell location count, cementing Redberry’s position as the largest Taco Bell franchisee in the country and boosting its reputation as a powerful brand amplifier and has helped coveted QSR brands achieve significant growth and brand awareness.
“We’re excited to ‘Make it Happen’,” says Ken Otto, CEO, Redberry Restaurants. “Our team is committed to achieving what we say we’re going to do. This has led brands to invest in us and trust us to deliver.”
The additional 200 Taco Bell restaurant locations across Canada will be built throughout British Columbia, Alberta, Saskatchewan, Manitoba, and Ontario.
“We couldn’t be happier to partner with Redberry as Taco Bell’s Canadian brand ambassadors.” says Matthew Shaw, Chief Development Officer, Taco Bell North America, he added “We recognize how different the Canadian market is and Redberry has proven themselves as an undisputed leader in operational excellence in the Canadian QSR industry. Taco Bell is one of the most innovative QSR franchises and is immensely popular with millennials and Gen Z.”
Redberry’s newest Taco Bell location is part of a new-build plaza centred in a high-growth node of North London, Ontario surrounded by significant new residential development.
“We are thrilled to open our first new-build Taco Bell restaurant in the city of London, which is our third Redberry-owned Taco Bell location in the city,” said Chris Racine, Chief Operating Officer of Redberry, “This new restaurant location is the perfect start of our expansion plan to significantly increase the availability of Taco Bells across Canada.”
