Canada
The 18 stores which opened in Canada, out of 32 planned, have been reduced to four. Two of those exist in Quebec (in Longueuil and Quebec City) while the other two stores are in Mississauga, Ontario, and Delta, British Columbia. A small seasonal store was recently opened in Wasaga Beach, Ontario. The Wasaga Beach location receives its doughnuts from the Mississauga store every morning. Another small store recently opened on November 3, 2010, in Toronto at Bathurst and Harbord Streets in the city's Harbord Village neighborhood. This store receives shipments from the Mississauga store. Krispy Kreme's Canadian assets were put up for sale in 2005 seven weeks after the U.S.-based doughnut company had the firm that owns and operates stores in Canada placed under bankruptcy protection. The Canadian operations are managed under the franchisee Krispy K Canada Company of Mississauga, Ontario. Many of the doughnuts can also be found at locations such as Petro-Canada and Loblaws.
