TORONTO, June 29, 2021 /CNW/ - Globally Local Technologies
Inc. (TSXV: GBLY), founder of one of the world's first vegan
fast-food chains and first to go public, today offered the
following updates on new restaurants, including Vaughan, and
announced details of its first Annual General Meeting via
teleconference.
The Vaughan location will be the first location launched under
the new Odd Burger brand, with a full transition expected in July
including a ticker symbol change to "ODD." Vaughan Odd Burger is
expected to open to the public as early as the first week of July
and will implement many of the design elements of the new Odd
Burger brand including updated interior decor and new signage. It
is also one of the most compact locations made to date, with a
total square footage under 1100 square feet.
"The Vaughan location is an incredible milestone for us, because
it is the first location to launch under the Odd Burger brand,"
said Globally Local co-founder and CEO James McInnes. "This location is also the first
to fully implement our smart kitchen design, which will be used as
a template for future locations and will help us to scale quickly
and effectively."
The company estimates the following opening timelines for
previously announced locations:
- Construction has begun on South
London and Waterloo locations, which are expected to open in
August
- Construction at the Hamilton
location is expected to begin shortly, and opening is planned for
September
- Construction is delayed at the East
Toronto (Broadview)
location due to structural issues with the building that are
currently being addressed by the landlord, but the company expects
an October opening
Earlier in June, the company announced it is engaged in site
selection for its first U.S. location in New York City.
