LONDON, Ont. — Odd Burger Corporation has halted its U.S. expansion plans amid escalating political tensions between Canada and the U.S.
On March 10, the company announced a strategy to deal with tariffs and raise capital to invest in its U.S. expansion, however, those expansion initiatives and investment plans aren’t moving forward at this time. Instead, the company plans on using the capital to invest in its Canadian manufacturing and franchise operations.
“Given the global tariff uncertainty, we’re putting the brakes on our U.S. expansion until pricing metrics can be formulated with certainty,” says James McInnes CEO and co-founder of Odd Burger. “We’re also seeing increased demand for our products in Canada, and as a Canadian company, we want to make sure that we focus on our core market at this time.”
