Mr Mikes SteakhouseCasual president and COO Tony Zidar said: “This agreement represents an important next chapter for Mr Mikes as we continue to grow coast to coast.
“Following strong momentum in Western Canada and Ontario, entering Atlantic Canada has been a strategic priority.
“This six-store commitment reflects the confidence experienced operators have in our brand, our people, and our long-term vision, and it establishes a strong foundation for meaningful growth in the region.”
The company said the Atlantic Canada deal follows recent expansion milestones and moves beyond 50 locations nationwide. It added seven new restaurants last year.
Mr Mikes SteakhouseCasual currently operates outlets across Alberta, British Columbia, Manitoba, Ontario and Saskatchewan, with further development underway.
Last month, Mr Mikes Restaurants also signed a development deal for five more sites in Ontario.
Mr Mikes SteakhouseCasual sales and franchising director Andy Lewicki said: “To see consecutive multi-unit agreements signed in both Ontario and now Atlantic Canada speaks volumes about the sustained momentum behind the brand.
“Experienced operators are choosing MR MIKES because it offers a proven system, strong operational support, and a clear growth roadmap.
“This agreement reinforces the strength of our franchise model as we continue working toward our goal of 100 locations nationwide.”
