Pita Pit opens up at South Park

Founded in TT September 2012, the Canadian franchise has found favour with an increasingly health-conscious population.

Managing director, Daniel Fakoory reiterated the brand’s commitment to promoting healthier lifestyles throughout TT . He said: “It’s extremely fulfilling to see the demand for this brand and these meals increase exponentially throughout the nation, because it indicates a greater awareness and a preference for healthier eating choices and healthier lifestyles by our citizens and the population as a whole. We have received numerous requests and enquiries from this part of the country, so it’s a pleasure to be able to cater to the south-land finally and we look forward to meeting the needs of interested consumers and conscious eaters throughout Trinidad and Tobago.” On the official opening day, the “Pita Pete” mascot toured the South Park Plaza and distributed balloons and special coupons to children and adults. The new staff was busy serving a steady stream of consumers, as patrons flocked to the store to experience the unique tastes and flavours on the Pita Pit menu.

Fakoory noted: “I am a firm believer in the adage that ‘you are what you eat’, so here at Pita Pit we are committed to making it easy for people to have healthy, delicious options to grab on the go - with fresh foods that exemplify our claim as ‘the healthier choice’!” Pita Pit has four other locations: Starlite Shopping Plaza, Diego Martin; Shoppes of Maraval, UWI, St Augustine campus and Trincity Mall.

The company plans to continue its expansion in the coming years across TT and the Caribbean.

The new branch open from 11 am – 9 pm every Monday to Thursday, until 10 pm on Fridays and Saturdays, and from 12 pm - 9 pm on Sundays.
