Dominique Gagné, Nicolas Beaulieu, Jordan Pelletier-Thibault, and Félix Duguay are multi-unit franchisees for the Bas-Saint-Laurent region. The group has not announced addresses or development timelines for the three potential restaurants.
Their Rimouski restaurant will open October 6 in the former Chocolats Favoris space at 371 Avenue Léonidas Sud in Quartier D’Astous.
