Walmart Canada is working with Ghost Kitchen Brands to bring one-stop meal pickup and delivery to Canadian customers. The first ghost kitchen is open at the St. Catharines Walmart, with additional locations in Woodstock, Toronto, Lachenaie, and Saint-Constant to open in the coming months.
Customers can order freshly prepared meals in-store and online for contactless pickup or delivery (from a third-party app such as Uber Eats), and mix and match from more than 20 brands. All meals are prepared in one kitchen for pickup or delivery.
“Walmart Canada is a perfect strategic partner for us as we continue to innovate and reinvent the restaurant industry with our unique restaurant concept,” said George Kottas, founder and CEO of GKB, in a statement. “We are both one-stop shops and we recognize the value in affordable, convenient solutions for our customers.”
“We believe in Ghost Kitchen’s strategy and vision and we’re very excited to be the first retailer to team up with Ghost Kitchens,” said Sam Hamam, senior director of licensees at Walmart Canada, in a statement. “We’re always looking at ways to improve our customer shopping experience with greater access to affordable products, services and brands.”
