At its peak, Canadian Pizza had 36 outlets in Singapore. Its franchiser for the region tells CNA how the company wants to stay relevant to consumers here.
SINGAPORE: Mr Mohamed Abdullah, the CEO of Hobbs Holdings – which runs Canadian Pizza in Singapore – brought up a random conversation that he had with an accountant.

When I asked him if he had ordered Canadian Pizza before, he said: 'Yes ... but I thought you guys closed down.'

We were not loud. We were there (but) quiet … We didn't have marketing, we didn't have visibility. And we were very happy, ” said Mr Abdullah, who took on the job last year after being a franchisee for about 15 years.
“We just want to revive this brand, make it more youthful. We are quite dated, if you ask me. We want to make it more youthful and energised in the market.
The brand launched in Canada in 1989, where it is known as Canadian 2 for 1 Pizza. Hobbs Holdings is the master franchise for this region.

Its first Singapore outlet opened in 1995 with just one outlet at Far East Plaza. At its peak, the chain had 36 outlets here, but now has 18 outlets run by 13 franchisees.
“That’s our niche, that’s our selling point – the '2 for 1' (offer). So we have maintained that until now … If you look at Pizza Hut and Domino's, they have their own target audience, we have our own target audience. Our target audience is the middle-class group in Singapore, ” he explained.
“We want to be affordable for people who have less to spend, bigger family to feed, parties, army boys. So this is what we are looking at. We are not looking at people who are going for acquired taste, more expensive. They are not our market.”

Canadian Pizza also caters to local tastes here and is “very close” to the hearts of customers, Mr Abdullah said. While it started off with Western-style menu options, the chain has become more Singaporean now, he said.
“We don't go for fancy, international flavours and all that. (It is) very down to earth. If you are a Malay, you want something to your tastebuds, we have something. For Indians, we have, for Chinese, we have (it).”
“We had so many orders we didn’t have enough riders to send (the pizzas). So who was sending for me? My pilot friends … We had like 20 cars waiting outside just to deliver pizza, ” said Mr Abdullah, who was still a franchisee then.

“All this while we have been serving the pizza ourselves, my riders. So we have control over the riders. We have control over customer service, quality and delivery. But now we don't, ” said Mr Abdullah.
To entice customers to order directly, Mr Abdullah said he plans to offer more promotions for orders through the Canadian Pizza website.
“With all these things going on in the world, we have issues of getting our cheese, sauce ... We used to get everything from one particular supplier, but now we have about 20 suppliers, ” he said.

For one, Canadian Pizza will be the full-season sponsor for all Singapore Premier League matches in 2023. It was one of the partners for a recently concluded e-sports event and is planning further collaborations ahead of the year-end FIFA World Cup.
“We are also going through a rebranding exercise, we are changing the way we look in the market. Traditionally we are hidden under the block in the corner … Now we are paying more attention to logo, brand guidelines, visibility, ” he added.
