An article we found in Business Edge, a Canadian business magazine, mentions the very first EATS company -- Sensational Suppers. The article focuses on Canadian meal assembly business, which, it claims, are becoming the next big thing in Canada.

In the United States, big companies like Dream Dinners and Super Suppers have over one hundred franchise locations each; there is definitely potential for the same to happen in Canada. At the time the article was written, only nine Easy Meal Assembly business existed in Canada -- four in Alberta, four in British Columbia and one in Ontario. The wild success enjoyed by these business in the USA is inspiring Canadian entrepreneurs, including Sensational Suppers' Dean Mallel and Karen Dietz, who are quoted in the article.

"In Vancouver, Sensational Suppers CEO Dean Mallel also envisions growing past the one store he and company president Karen Dietz now operate.

'The dream would be (to expand) across the country,' says Mallel, who brings restaurant industry experience to the venture. 'I think it's a phenomenal prospect for franchising. The industry is so absolutely needed. This is something I'm into doing not only because I believe it's sound business, it's the most remarkable thing that I've ever seen.'"
