Last year’s success has positioned our company for incredible growth in 2025.”Setting the Stage for Growth: Record Expansion Across CanadaLast year marked exciting momentum for Burger King, Taco Bell and Jersey Mike’s locations across Canada. Redberry opened 14 new Burger King locations and re-modeled 20 others, four of which featured the brand-new Sizzle design.

There were 11 opened in 2024, with two more currently under construction and opening in early 2025.2024 saw Redberry onboarding its new brand partner with Jersey Mike’s, by way of acquiring two stores and building three new ones.

Some of the most popular stories included new location openings and new Burger King Sizzle design, thought leadership from Redberry’s executive leadership team, new hires, and job opportunities at the company.And Redberry knows how to make the best Whoppers.
