All menu items are created with chef-inspired flavours and crafted with plant-based, gluten-free, organic and non-GMO super-food ingredients. Copper Branch Restaurants operate using the System, including signage, interior and exterior design, décor and colour scheme; special recipes and menu items; proprietary products and ingredients; uniform standards, specifications and procedures for operations; quality and uniformity of products and services offered; inventory, management and financial control procedures (including point of sale and tracking systems); training and assistance; and advertising and promotional programs.

OUR LOCATIONS
We currently have 17 Copper Branch locations opened in Canada with an additional 20 openings scheduled over the next 12 months. Although most of our current stores are 1,000 to 2,500 square feet we can serve our entire menu in a small as a 350 square foot kiosk. We do not fry or grill our food allowing us access to locations other restaurants are not able to operate out of.
MAJOR HEALTH TRENDS
Studies demonstrating the importance of food on health are continuously being released and consumers have, more than ever, a conscious understanding of this relationship. Obesity and disease are of increasing medical concern, especially in more developed countries, where lack of physical fitness and unhealthy nutrition cause an increasing number of preventable deaths. Along with the major health-trends in the food industry, awareness of meat production's environmental implications is also bringing more people to plant-based foods. Food studies have ultimately proven the importance of food and diet on our health. It has become mainstream consumer knowledge that consuming more plant-based foods is extremely beneficial toward one’s health. More consumers than ever are following the trend of healthy eating and the demand for ‘healthy’ food products is on a major growth surge.
