Under the partnership, Blitz Franchise said it will ensure franchise recruitment and development strategy to meet Crêpe Delicious’s mission to elevate everyday dining by bringing fresh, customizable, and globally inspired crêpes to communities around the world in a vibrant, fast-casual setting.

The brand has always stood apart by offering a menu spanning morning coffee, grab-and-go options and a full range of sweet and savory crêpes. Crêpe Delicious operates on a model built to generate revenue from open to close. 

With over 60 locations in Canada and other countries, Crêpe Delicious is now ready to start its new phase of growth and has selected Blitz Franchise as its development partner. Known for their proven expertise in connecting the right investors with the right brands across Canada, this partnership is perfectly aligned with Crêpe Delicious’s ambition to expand their brand into new markets, it said.
