I was curious this morning. How did this coffee chain come to be? Who is/was Tim Horton?
Tim Horton, National Hockey League Legend, opened the first store in Hamilton, Ontario, Canada in 1964. A cup of coffee cost $0.25. A dozen doughnuts cost $0.69.
He partnered with Ron Joyce in 1967. In 1974, Tim Horton died in a car crash, and Ron Joyce took full control of the brand and also created Tim Horton Children's Foundation. KatT's Iced Capp was introduced in 1999.
A hockey player legend, really? Yes. Tim Horton was born in 1930. Playing for the Toronto Maple Leafs, his team won the Stanely Cup (the award for winning the National Championships--USA & Canadian teams are together in this North American Natonal Hockey League) in the 1961-1962, 1962-1963, 1963-1964, and 1966-1967 seasons. He is one of the 100 Greatest Players in National Hockey League History.
My sources were Tim Hortons, National Hockey League, and CTV News websites.
