It’s Same Same but Different!
Our exotic flavours have been heating up Canada since 2004, making Thai Express the leading quick casual Thai restaurant concept in the world. The explosion of Thai Express onto the quick-service restaurant market has resulted in the consistent opening of new locations every year, even internationally.
Thai Express marries the idea of quality Thai cuisine with the ability to serve its clientele in a fast-paced environment. Market analysis confirms that Thai Express franchises are highly rated to succeed and are well received in all targeted markets. Currently, the franchise is in very high demand due to positive feedback and increased market exposure.
“THE PERFECT INGREDIENTS FOR A MEMORABLE EXPERIENCE!”
Thai Express is always looking for new strategic sites to expand our family of franchises. Sites are selected based on:
- Traffic
- Visibility
- Square footage
- Cost criteria
Preferred locations are typically major shopping centers, public markets, or highly populated commercial and/or residential areas. Our business model can seamlessly translate to stand-alone street locations as well as non-traditional food service environments such as office towers, universities, hospitals, and airports.
Thai Express is highly focused on expansion, and this has resulted in its explosion onto the quick-service restaurant market since our acquisition in 2004 with five locations in the Montreal region. Thai Express has had exceptional growth since its inception.
We provide continuous support and professional guidance to all our new franchisees from the early stages of training and development, all the way through to the exciting opening day and beyond. Our vision of success is to always exceed expectations by offering a tasteful variety of authentic Thai cuisine prepared and served by well-trained and motivated team members.
Thai Express has put tremendous effort into researching, testing, tasting, and implementing our concept through various mediums such as design, processes, marketing, purchasing, and core values.

Thai Express is the perfect answer to the needs of customers overwhelmed by a fast-paced urban life. Apart from being an original, attractive chain that provides fast, friendly service, the freshness and flavour of the food at Thai Express is certainly the key in attracting loyal customers.
From Vancouver to St. John’s, Canadians in all provinces have embraced the brand as the ambassador of the food of Thailand, consequently making Pad Thai as common as poutine.
