MONTREAL, December 15, 2017 – Pizza Pizza, Canada’s leading pizza chain, continues its expansion in Quebec with the opening of a new restaurant at 241 Samson Boulevard, just south of Boul Notre-Dame, in Sainte-Dorothée, Laval. This will mark Pizza Pizza’s 57th location in Quebec (traditional and express stores combined).
“When we began a renewed program of growth in Quebec ten years ago, our mission was to effectively establish a solid foundation in this great province,” said Pat Finelli, Chief Marketing Officer for Pizza Pizza. “Today, we pride ourselves on our healthy and organic growth in Quebec, which was reinforced last year with the opening of six new Pizza Pizza restaurants in the Greater Montreal Area – the largest number of stores to open in any market last year.”
The new restaurant offers Pizza Pizza’s wide variety of hot and fresh menu items including a diverse range of classic and gourmet pizzas, chicken wings, boneless chicken bites, pastas, French fries and poutine. All Pizza Pizza traditional locations also offer options for those with dietary preferences, such as Dairy-Free Vegan Cheese, and a gluten-free crust.
Pizza Pizza and its franchise partners employ more than 400 people across the province. The company is proudly committed to supporting local sports teams and is currently the Official Pizza for all three of Montreal’s professional sports teams, the Montreal Canadiens, Alouettes and Impact, as well as the city’s new AHL franchise- the Laval Rocket. They also operate non-traditional counters in the Bell Centre, Place Bell, Saputo Stadium, La Ronde and Cineplex theatres.
The company continues to issue a broad call to local entrepreneurs who wish to join its growing franchise network. Interested candidates are invited to visit ppl-stg-fe-phx2.appspot.com/franchising.
