Tim Hortons Announces C$80 Million Investment

Tim Hortons Announces C$80 Million Investment

Tim Hortons Announces C$80 Million Investment to Support its Back to Basics Plan that is Delivering Results in Product Quality and Digital Experience

TORONTO (StLouisRestaurantReivew) Tim Hortons® today announced an C$80M corporate investment in Canada for 2021 to supercharge advertising expenses, highlight menu improvements in product quality, and support continued enhancements in the digital guest experience, including the Tims Rewards program.

Tim Hortons recently launched three new quality upgrades to its menu as part of its Back to Basics plan, including a new dark roast coffee, Craveables lunch sandwiches, and freshly cracked Canadian eggs in breakfast sandwiches.  Part of the corporate investment will support awareness of these launches and additional menu quality initiatives planned for 2021.

Guests at Tim Hortons are increasingly interacting with the brand through its digital channels.  The Tim Hortons mobile app in Canada has seen monthly active users grow approximately five-fold since 2018. About one-third of all Canadian adults have used the Tims Rewards loyalty program in the last 18 months.  The investment will support the Tims Rewards loyalty program and other strategic digital initiatives to continue building a best-in-class digital experience for guests.

This investment in 2021 will also provide a substantial increase in overall advertising throughout the balance of the year – all intended to highlight taste and quality, great value for money, and continuing to strengthen the love that Canadians have for the Tim Hortons brand.

In addition to the C$80M corporate investment, advertising contributions from restaurant owners in Canada will be increasing by 0.5% of sales to historical levels permitted under the current contracts, leading to a sustained, increased level of investment in advertising, community, and digital initiatives in 2022 and beyond.

Jose Cil, Chief Executive Officer of Restaurant Brands International, commented on the announcement:

“The efforts behind our Back to Basics plan are starting to deliver results.  The plan focuses on building an experienced, talented and stable leadership team, investing in product quality, becoming an industry leader in the digital guest experience, delivering great value for money, and continuing to build our strong, iconic brand in communities across Canada.

With an exceptional leadership team now at the helm, early successes in our digital journey, and encouraging results from our product quality investments, we are confident the business is heading in the right direction.  Our investment today reflects that confidence and our optimism in the plan.”

Axel Schwan, President of Tim Hortons, added:

“Despite the disruptions from COVID, our team maintained focus throughout 2020 and has delivered three consecutive product launches with encouraging early results, contributing positively to our sales.  Our new dark roast coffee has received a higher guest rating than any of our previous recipes; our affordable, Craveables lunch platform – with the roast beef and crispy chicken sandwich is receiving great feedback; and we see meaningful sales contributions from our nationwide launch of freshly cracked, Canadian eggs in our breakfast sandwiches.

We also see strong digital progress with the adoption, usage, and increasing level of guest engagement on our Tim’s Rewards program and app.  Also, we are continuing to work hard on improving personalized offers on the app and are rolling out predictive selling on our drive-thru menu boards across the country this year.  This is all part of our goal to provide Canada’s best-in-class digital guest experience.

And when it comes to our brand perception overall, we continue to see improvements – guest satisfaction has grown significantly driven by simplifying and improving the quality of our menu items, plus guests are experiencing faster speeds of service.  Community contributions by so many of our restaurant owners, bolstered by our branded coffee trucks traveling Canada and supporting front line workers with free coffee and baked goods, also had a key role in driving continuous improvements in overall brand perception,” concluded Schwan.
