News of its opening was first announced in March of 2023, stating that the chain teamed up with Toronto-based private investment companies Osmington Inc. and Harlo Entertainment Inc., to bring the vision to fruition.

According to Michael Kark, Chief Global Licensing Officer of Shake Shack, they plan to open 35 locations across Canada by 2035.

“We have been eyeing this incredible opportunity in Canada for quite some time and are elated to have found exceptional partners to serve Shack classics and bespoke Canada-exclusive items to our sophisticated neighbors to the north,” said Kark.

“Together with Osmington Inc. and Harlo Entertainment, we plan to open 35 Shacks in Canada by 2035 starting with the flagship location in Toronto in 2024. We can’t wait to be a part of the city’s bustling energy and innovative food scene.”

The new location will also collaborate with local purveyors and producers in order to build a one-of-a-kind Shack experience that is unique to the Toronto community.

Needless to say, we can’t wait to chow down on classic ShackBurgers, and crinkle-cut fries.

As for its Toronto opening, we’ll keep you updated once more information is released.
