August 10, 2009, Winnipeg– When Agum Bhagria and his
wife Sangeeta heard the news that their friend Devinder Paul Thind was opening
a restaurant in Manitoba, they were intrigued.
Months after the opening of Thind’s restaurant, the
Bhagrias are following suit as franchisees of Pizza Pizza’s second
Winnipeg location, at 2677 Pembina Highway. The opening is part of a
Canada-wide strategic expansion, with more restaurants scheduled to open in
Manitoba later this year.
The Bhagrias bring experience and enthusiasm to the Pizza
Pizza outlet, having worked with and managed a pizza chain for many years. Pizza Pizza has steadily
advanced its expansion throughout the country including new locations in
Montreal, British Columbia, and Saskatchewan.
Ten full and part-time employees have been hired in
preparation for the opening of this new location. The new restaurant is
approximately 1,700 square feet, and will focus on takeout and delivery,
according to its owner.
