Redberry Investments general manager Christian LeBrun said the company has increased its number of restaurants by 970% since launching in 2005, positioning the company as an important player in Canada's foodservice industry.
"Future investments planned by the company in the coming years will total more than $90 million," LeBrun added.
Redberry is also looking to expand the Burger King in Canada by opening new outlets, introducing new menu options and remodeling strategy.
