Tim Hortons Locations Open at All Tops Stores

Dec 24, 2008

Full-service Tim Hortons restaurants or self-serve kiosks have now opened in all 82 Tops supermarkets and Tops Xpress locations. The restaurants serve such fare as premium coffee and other beverages, fresh baked goods, and a breakfast sandwich.

Tops and Canadian quick-serve restaurant operator Tim Hortons revealed an agreement in October to add either a Tim Hortons full-service restaurant or a self-serve kiosk to all 82 Tops supermarkets and Tops Xpress locations

"Having Tim Hortons products in our stores will undoubtedly enhance our customers' total shopping experience," noted Tops president and c.e.o. Frank Curci.

The agreement stipulates 20 full-service restaurants and 62 self-serve locations. It is expected that several self-serve kiosks will be converted over time to full-service restaurants.

Williamsville, N.Y.-based Tops operates 71 full-service supermarkets and five franchise supermarkets, and has over 10,000 associates.
