UNRELIABLE
Once known as a Canadian staple, Tim Hortons just simply isn't pulling customers like they used to.
As a fast food restaurant surrounded by hungry Canadian university students, you would think that Tim Hortons would be a thriving, multi-million dollar corporation. But that's just not the case.
After talking with numerous students, we've found out that Tim Hortons can't compete like it once did. The main issue? Decline in coffee sales.
Studies are showing university students are consistently getting 8 hours of sleep, staying on top of all their readings and assignments, keeping stress levels at a low, and getting their recommended daily water intake. To top it off, there's been a newfound love for 8:30am classes.

Besides the detrimental impact that declining coffee sales have on Timmies, their food sales also haven't been up to snuff. The reason? University students just aren't hungover anymore and don't need greasy food to pick them up from the Sunday scaries.
To add to this, students are finding that buying food is unnecessary, as they can just meal prep for weeks on end.
