DOUBLE DOUBLE
HUNTER, DOUGLAS
Skylight Books – Hotlist Fall 2012
Everywhere we look, we see a Tim Hortons restaurant. Double Double is the first book to look at the company
from a wide angle, from the life of co-founder, Tim Horton, to the growth of the business under the steady hand
of his friend and partner, Ron Joyce, after Horton’s death, to the company’s merger with the American fast-food
chain Wendy’s and its eventual repatriation to Canada. A fascinating business story, Double Double also reveals
how the franchising operation works, how the company has become an important element of Canadian politics,
the American expansion of the chain and why Canadians are so dedicated to its menu. Double Double also
examines the many challenges Tim Hortons is facing in maintaining its status as one of Canada’s most
respected consumer brands in an increasingly competitive business.
