Amanda Lang is back for a double header at the Canadian Restaurant Investment Summit (MAY 6-7, 2014 | Toronto). First up, she interviews BILL GREGSON, PRESIDENT OF CARA, AND PAUL RIVETT, PRESIDENT OF FAIRFAX about their recent merger. In October, Cara announced that it closed a strategic financing transaction with Fairfax Financial Holdings and acquired Prime Restaurants Inc from Fairfax as part of the deal. With a strategic financial partner like Fairfax and the addition of Prime's casual dining restaurant brands and premium Irish pubs, including East Side Mario's, Casey's and Prime Pubs (Fionn MacCool's, D'Arcy McGee's, Paddy Flaherty's, Tir nan Óg) and Belgian-style brasseries operating as the Bier Markt, Cara has solidified its position as Canada's largest full service restaurant company with iconic brands that deliver unique dining experiences for Canadians coast to coast. This combined family of restaurants significantly increases Cara's scale, strengthens its market position and provides opportunities for growth and acquisitions. Amanda returns in the afternoon to the Canadian Restaurant Investment Summit to interview Peter Senst, President of Canadian Capital Markets at CBRE and Blake Hutcheson, President and CEO of Oxford Properties. Don’t miss this insightful look in the Canadian real estate investment world from two key players.
