Jollibee will open its 100th North American location on Thursday, January 25, in Surrey, British Columbia.
According to a press release from the Jollibee group, the new storefront will be located at 12047 72nd Avenue in the highly popular Strawberry Hill Shopping Center.
Surrey Filipino Canadian Society of British Columbia says that statistics from the Canadian government in 2016 estimated that there were over 26,480 Filipinos living in Surrey.
There is already one Jollibee location in Surrey in King George Hub. Executives decided it was time to open another.
“The support we received when we opened our first Surrey location in 2023 was incredible to witness,” Maribeth Dela Cruz, President, of Jollibee North America, said in a statement. “The fans here in British Columbia are amazing, and we’re thrilled to be celebrating our 100th store location in such a vibrant and welcoming community. Even better, the Strawberry Hill Shopping Centre could not be more convenient for residents to satisfy their cravings and relish in a bit of joy.”
