Tim Hortons Opening 400 Locations in Canada to Truck Drivers

Tim Hortons, one of the three biggest subsidiary brands of Restaurant Brands International (NYSE: QSR), is opening 400 locations to truck drivers carrying food and other essentials along the highway network. So far, the program is only slated for Canadian locations, though there are hundreds of Tim Hortons restaurants in the U.S., too.

The outlets, which closed their dine-in facilities in the second week of March as part of the effort to decrease contact between people and slow the potential spread of COVID-19, will open their front counters to truck drivers. Company COO Mike Hancock said: "We know there have been barriers for truck drivers in accessing clean washrooms and food and drinks to keep them going during their work. We made it a priority to address these issues."
