    About DRUXY'S

    DRUXY'S is growing and has opportunities for you to become part of the DRUXY'S Family. We aim to provide a very special level of service for each of our customers. We see simply satisfying customer needs as a service failure. Much more than need satisfaction is required, and as such, we work to develop personal relationships with our customers. By developing these relationships we are able to generate average customer frequency of 4.5 times per week. This compares to an industry average of 4.5 times per year. More importantly, over half of our business comes from regular customers who frequent DRUXY'S an average of 4 times per day. This loyalty is the direct result of the exceptional personal service that we offer our customers each and every time they visit our restaurant.DRUXY'S vision for the future sees us growing by 6 - 12 locations per year over the next 5 years. DRUXY'S is currently undertaking an expansion program that will target key health care centres throughout the Province of Ontario. We are confident that our commitment to a fresh, healthy menu perfectly positions DRUXY'S to take advantage of the growing concern for health conscious eating. This concern is of paramount importance in a hospital setting. We find it interesting that the major fast food companies have followed in our footsteps by incorporating fresh salads and sandwiches into their menus. Since 1976, our experience has given us a foothold in the market, as we are the benchmark against which the competition is compared. Our extensive and ever expanding and evolving menu of 23 sandwiches, 30 salads and 32 soups and chili makes us a difficult and moving target. As a result, DRUXY'S is a welcome addition to any retail food service venue.
