Pearle Vision has its eyes on Canada.

The respected optical franchise is positioned to expand its footprint throughout Canada this year, with a special focus on Vancouver, Calgary, Edmonton and Toronto. Currently, there are 59 Pearle Vision EyeCare Center locations in Canada.

“We are excited by the high level of interest in Pearle Vision shown by potential licensed owners in Canada,” says Josh Robinson, Vice President of Licensing & Development of Pearle Vision. “Pearle Vision partners with optometrists, opticians and qualified investors who share our passion for genuine eye care. We are excited about our Ignite program, which allows independent optometry practice owners to take their business to the next level by converting their practice to a Pearle Vision franchise location.”

Representatives from Pearle Vision will be available to speak with those interested in franchising at the Franchise Canada Show at Nutrien Western Event Centre in Stampede Park, Calgary, Alberta, on Feb. 9 and 10, and at the Franchise Canada Show at the Edmonton Convention Centre in Edmonton, Alberta, on March 23 and 24. Individuals or teams interested in speaking with brand representatives during those shows may contact Dwayne Greer, of the Pearle Vision franchise development team, to schedule anappointment.

“We look forward to meeting with entrepreneurs of various backgrounds and discussing the possibility of bringing Pearle Vision EyeCare Centers to more communities,” Robinson says.

Pearle Vision has been a leading optical brand for more than five decades and has been franchising since 1981. Licensed owners benefit from association with a highly recognized and respected brand as well as a multimillion-dollar marketing program, established supply chain and proven business systems. Pearle Vision is consistently ranked among the best franchise systems1, and consumers have rated Pearle Vision the top optical brand for doctor quality perception2.

“From the turnkey operations model to the market intelligence that comes with being part of a long-standing industry leader, Pearle Vision puts me in position to grow the business each year,” says Dr. Nadia Khan, a Pearle Vision franchisee in the Toronto area. “Being part of the Pearle Vision franchise system gives me a leg up on the competition because of the extensive knowledge, marketing support and Pearle Vision name.”
