## Story

Brasa Peruvian Kitchen, a fast-casual brand rooted in Peruvian superfoods, announced the opening of a flagship location at Toronto Pearson International Airport, scheduled for summer 2026. This marks the brand’s first airport location and a significant milestone in its growth.

Located in Terminal 1, post-security, the restaurant will introduce millions of travelers each year to Brasa’s “Good Mood Superfoods” and modern take on Peruvian cuisine. The location will be operated in partnership with Banmore Group, a respected, family-run hospitality operator known for its people-first approach and strong track record in high-volume environments.

The collaboration between Brasa, Banmore Group, and Toronto Pearson reflects a shared commitment to delivering high-quality food and exceptional guest experiences within one of North America’s busiest travel hubs.

“This is a defining moment for Brasa,” said Michel Falcon, Founder and CEO of Brasa Peruvian Kitchen. “Toronto Pearson is one of the most important gateways in North America. To bring our food, our culture, and our hospitality to travelers from around the world is incredibly meaningful for us. We’re extremely thankful to have the support of the Banmore Group and Toronto Pearson.”

Toronto Pearson welcomes millions of passengers from around the world each year, and we know great food is an important part of their journey,” said Kurush Minocher, Chief Commercial Officer, Toronto Pearson. “Brasa’s fresh approach to Peruvian cuisine adds another exciting dining option for travellers and further strengthens the diverse range of food experiences available at the airport. We’re excited to welcome Brasa to Toronto Pearson as we continue to enhance the passenger experience and offer world-class dining for travellers.”

“From our very first conversation with Michel, it was clear that Brasa and Banmore Group share the same values, quality, hospitality, and a genuine commitment to the people we serve. Becoming Brasa’s first franchise partner is a milestone we do not take lightly, and we look forward to setting the standard for what this partnership can become.” said Raj Chokker, President of Banmore Group.

Brasa currently operates three corporate and two franchise locations across Toronto and New York. As the brand continues to grow, it has also recently introduced a franchising program focused on partnering with experienced multi-unit operators who share its commitment to hospitality, operational excellence, and community engagement. Additional expansion is planned across North America, including continued growth in existing markets and new regions.
