Happy Belly Food Group Inc. has officially announced its plans to open doors to a franchise and real-estate location in Aurora, Ontario, for its brand HEAL Wellness. HEAL, known for its better-for-you smoothie and acai bowls, smoothies, and other items, has solidified its presence across Ontario since opening. Featuring real fruit and superfoods, the brand's products are crafted to leave you feeling full and nourished.
"The expansion of our retail footprint in Ontario is accelerating as our first mover advantage is beginning to pay dividends. We have seen significant franchise interest across Canada for our emerging brands, from both franchisees and landlords alike, so steady expansion is well on its way [...]" said Sean Black, Chief Executive Officer of Happy Belly.
