Franchising
Founded in 1993, Williams quickly built a reputation for fast service, quality products and a
friendly environment. In May 2004, CEO Dean Braund began as a franchisee and shareholder.
His disciplined approach to business backed by many years in the food industry ushered in a
new era in growth.
A Fresh Outlook
Leveraging our team’s years of experience, we’ve dedicated ourselves to improving the
Williams brand by clarifying who we are to our guests and simplifying the operations for our
Franchise partners. A new name, new logo, improved design, re-engineered menu and yet,
through this transition, we’ve never lost sight of the founder’s original vision for Williams.
Williams Fresh Cafe is Canada’s leading Fast Casual cafe serving fresh food in a vibrant,
inviting atmosphere. Our Mission is to deliver a unique dining experience to each guest by
serving quality food products in a welcoming and comfortable environment.
The Key Pillars to Support our Mission
We will focus on delivering to our guests:
- Quality food, coffee and drinks with healthy choices.
- A meeting place with non-intrusive service.
- A commitment to operational excellence every day.
