In the announcement, Greg Maleganeas, President of Shamrock Burgers said “Shamrock Burgers is well-known in Scarborough. We’ve been a favourite destination since 1970. You could say we’ve been rocking the premium burger market since before there was a premium burger market!”. Maleganeas added, “Now is the time for us to take Shamrock’s marketing efforts to the next level. The Pop Shop is going to help us build excitement and traffic in our stores as well as increasing awareness that we’re franchising throughout Durham region.”

Our challenge at The Pop Shop is to raise Shamrock’s profile using every marketing tool in our toolbox while maintaining and strengthening their already entrenched brand. It’s going to be an exciting and busy year!”
