01
Footprint

A near-pure franchise model

DataLane maps roughly 160 Tim Hortons operators running about 679 locations across the U.S.—an average of 4.2 locations per operator. Nearly all are franchised, owner-operated businesses, not corporate stores, which is exactly the buyer you can reach with a direct mobile number.

02
Scale

Ownership stays broad, not concentrated

Unlike the most consolidated franchise systems, Tim Hortons ownership stays spread out—the 13 operators running 10 or more locations control only about 53% of U.S. locations, and even the single largest operator runs just 122 locations. Overall, the 10 largest operators hold just 49% of locations, the top 25 about 67%, and the top 50 about 81%. Reaching this system means reaching a wide base of operators, not a handful of giants.

03
Distribution

A long tail of single-store owners

Below the multi-unit tier sits a deep base of smaller owners: 68% of Tim Hortons operators—about 108—run just one or two locations, with another 39 running three to nine. That split is a filter: target the large portfolios for enterprise deals, or the single-store owners for volume—and DataLane tags every record with its location count.

04
Portfolios

Many operators run multi-brand portfolios

About 8% of Tim Hortons operators also run at least one other franchise brand, most often Subway, Dunkin', and Pizza Hut. DataLane resolves the same owner across every brand they operate, so you see the full portfolio, not just their Tim Hortons locations.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions
How accurate and complete is DataLane's Tim Hortons franchise owner data?

DataLane publishes coverage and accuracy metrics it stands behind. Across franchise brands, expect roughly 60–70% coverage—a cell-phone number and the owner's name for that share of the accounts you care about—with delivered data 80%+ accurate. Coverage runs higher for larger holding groups than for one- or two-unit owners, and for bigger multi-unit operators DataLane often returns multiple contacts per account—still counted as a single account credit.

What's included in the Tim Hortons franchise owners dataset?

The full ownership hierarchy: every Tim Hortons location rolled up to the franchisee holding group that owns it, a brand-to-account-name mapping, and decision-maker contact data for each account. You also get location-level detail—the specific addresses each group operates—plus the primary city and state where most of a group's locations sit. Connected account names are derived from FDD filings.

Why are franchise owners so hard to reach?

Most Tim Hortons owners and operators simply aren't active on LinkedIn—they're effectively invisible to profile-based prospecting, and legacy tools tend to hand you a main store line, so reps burn time on gatekeepers. DataLane solves the two hard parts: which owners to prioritize, and the direct mobile number of the actual decision-maker.

How fresh is the Tim Hortons data, and do you capture new store openings?

DataLane runs new-opening checks about every two weeks and is usually on the leading edge of recency. The one caveat: the full holding-group hierarchy for a brand-new location can lag until additional sources confirm the owner, and the biggest hierarchy movements cluster around new FDD releases.
