Canada’s Tim Hortons, one of the largest restaurant chains in North America, is heading to Pakistan this year with plans to open dozens of outlets across the country, the company announced on social media.
“As we continue to grow Tim Hortons around the world: Tims is opening in Pakistan this year,” the company posted on its official LinkedIn account.
Tim Hortons, known for its coffee and doughnuts, said it is planning to open dozens of new restaurants across Pakistan in the coming years starting with its first in Lahore later this year.
Tim Hortons currently has over 5,100 restaurants across 13 countries, including in the United States, Mexico, Spain, the United Kingdom, across the Middle East, China, Thailand and the Philippines.
On August 26, 2014, Burger King agreed to purchase Tim Hortons for $11.4 billion. The two chains became subsidiaries of the Canadian-American holding company Restaurant Brands International, which is majority-owned by Brazilian investment firm 3G Capital, on December 15, 2014.
