They are expanding quickly and some of the current locations that they have expanded to aren't that far out of range. Besides any successful American company that wants rapid growth and to expand quickly can't ignore the Canadian market going forward.

Wendys advertises that to, with irradiation techniques ground beef will stay "fresh" for several days. Save On Foods only sells this type of ground beef, not frozen does not mean "better" IMO.
Met a Regional Manager for Five Guys etc... in Moxies one night, had a good convo. None of their product is ever frozen, they get their buns couriered in daily, same with their ground beef. I asked him about not using Canadian potatoes, for quality/ marketing reasons they will only use potatoes from the 44th? (or something like that, Idaho) parallel.
