Canadian coffee chain Tim Hortons has selected North American food delivery company, SkipTheDishes, to offer food delivery services in Greater Toronto Area (GTA) regions.
Customers can visit SkipTheDishes mobile app or its online platform to place orders from participating Tim Hortons restaurants.
This deal complements Tim Hortons’s plans announced last year, to test food delivery in various markets in Western Canada.
As part of the deal, the company is offering the delivery service at participating restaurants in Winnipeg, Edmonton, Calgary, Ottawa, Greater Vancouver and Toronto. It also plans to expand the service to more locations.
Tim Hortons chief operating officer Mike Hancock said: “Our partnership with SkipTheDishes was tested in various regions across Canada in the past year and was successful in our target markets.
“Whether it was a family ordering their favourite breakfast sandwiches and coffee, an office team ordering a group lunch, or someone working from home ordering a mid-afternoon coffee or baked good, guests were able to enjoy Tim Hortons with flexibility and ease. Now we’re excited to offer that in the Greater Toronto Area as well.”
