Canada's Largest Seafood Chain Announces Brighter,
Unique Nautical Look to New Menu.
Calgary, AB (July 31, 2003) — You don't have to live on the
west coast to get great seafood, just sail in to your local Joey's Only
and try one of the many succulent seafood dishes on the NEW Menu. This exciting
new menu design coincided with the opening of our 100th location in Olds, AB on
Monday July 21, 2003. The menu will be implemented system-wide in the upcoming
months. The menu features a nautical design, new food dishes and a more purposeful
flow making it easier for guests to find their favorite dishes and experience
new ones. The emphasis on photography, menu items and brand image are the
biggest changes that Joey's Only has made in its menu history. The result is
a fresh, hot new menu.
"We are very excited with the new look of the menu. Named the fishbowl design,
it is a unique layout that boldly places the food photography around an oval or
fish bowl shape that displays the menu items," exclaims Kathy Flynn, Vice
President Marketing, Joey's Only Franchising Ltd. The menu was re-designed
from a large tri-fold design to a smaller 8-page book-style layout, which
is better suited for the Joey's Only tables. For locations that serve
Tennessee Jack's Rotisserie Chicken and Ribs, these menu items will be separated
from the Joey's menu items with a die-cut flap at the top of the menu.
"The new menu delivers more menu choices for our guests while maintaining our
generous portions at value prices and our commitment to providing fresh, quality
seafood, and rotisserie chicken & ribs" said Andy Taylor, Vice President
Operations. Some of these new menu choices include: the Mini Shrimp Cocktail
— a popular item from the summer menu, the Fish Sandwich — made
with our light & crispy Famous Fish, and the Seaside Sampler — a four
item combo that includes Clam Strips, Popcorn Shrimp, Scallops, and one piece of
Joey's Famous Fish.
In developing the new menu, Joey's Only brought together a team of people
including an advertising agency, a photographer, Joey's Only franchisees,
and operations and marketing staff to create the nautical look that boldly
features the food and remains true to the company's brand.
Best known for its Tuesday All-You-Can-Eat Fish & Chips, Joey's Only
started in Calgary, AB in 1985. Since franchising in 1992, Joey's Only has
emerged as Canada's largest seafood chain with the 100th store milestone in
Olds, AB. To add variety to the menu, Tennessee Jack's Rotisserie Chicken and
Ribs was introduced to the Joey's Only menu in 2000.
