In Canada since mid-2019, Wayback Burgers is a 35-year-old quick casual concept that features cooked-to-order burgers, milkshakes and hand-dipped ice cream along with a nostalgic atmosphere that harkens back to a simpler place and time. Presently Wayback Burgers Canada has over 25 locations from Alberta to New Brunswick and is exploring opportunities in British Columbia. Featuring its cooked-to-order burgers, available as a single, classic double, triple and triple-triple along with rich, thick milkshakes made by hand, using only whole milk and hand-dipped ice cream, the chain has retained Eric Walker at Cushman & Wakefield ULC to assist with a search in B.C., focusing on Abbotsford, Surrey, Delta, Burnaby, Richmond and North Vancouver in Metro Vancouver, Kelowna and Penticton in the Okanagan region and Victoria, Colwood/Langford and Nanaimo on Vancouver Island. The franchise chain is targeting 1400 to 2500 square foot units in high traffic street and plaza locations with visibility and convenient access. Introduced in Newark in Delaware in the early 1990s under the Jake’s Hamburgers brand, the quick casual concept was rebranded as Wayback Burgers in the early 2000s when it launched its expansion program. Presently the Cheshire, Connecticut-based company has over 180 locations worldwide and more under development.
