The company was presented with the award at a luncheon at the

Hollands, A&W's President and CEO and Graham Cooke, the
company's Vice-President of New Restaurant Expansion, were on hand
to accept the award on behalf of the company. "A&W has been a
franchise business in Canada for over 50 years and we have worked
very hard to establish outstanding, win-win relationships with our
franchisees," said Hollands upon receiving the award. "We are
so very proud to have our work validated in this way. The Pinnacle
Award is highly prestigious and we are thrilled to be named as one
of Canada's top foodservice franchise chains." Graham Cooke, who

deposits for well over 100 franchises, all of which will become
A&W restaurants over the next 3-5 years." Cooke went on
to say the company will continue to target Ontario and Quebec as
key growth markets in the next few years. The Pinnacle Awards are
