Miranda Medeiros attends the grand opening of Benny & Co. at 201 St-Jacques Street in the Old Port

Benny & Co. is the triumph of generations of hard-working Quebecers. The seeds of this local franchise were first planted back in the 1940s where the Benny family would raise chicken on their family farm where they began making their renowned rotisserie chicken.
