Summary

General information
Richtree in Promenade (now closed)

Richtree Market Restaurants Inc. operates market-style, open-kitchen restaurants founded by Jorg and Marian Reichert in 1996. At their height, they operated over 10 restaurants under the Richtree name.

Previously to that the Reicherts owned several Mövenpick franchises in Toronto and Montreal, and held the North American franchise rights to the Mövenpick name. They had pioneered the open market concept in 1992 when they had opened the first Mövenpick Marché in the former BCE Place, now Brookfield place, in Toronto.

The company currently has one owned-and-operated location at Square One, Mississauga, Ontario, Canada.[1] The chain offers casual dining and takeout service, with limited grocery stores and special items for children. Menu items are inspired by foods of Europe and Asia. Locations seat approximately 120 people.

The flagship, downtown-Toronto location, at Brookfield Place (formerly BCE Place), went out of business in January 2010.[2] Mövenpick has reopened the location back under the Mövenpick Marché name. As of May 31, 2020, Movenpick closed all its Canadian restaurants.[3]

Richtree closed their restaurant locations in College Park in Toronto, Rideau Centre in Ottawa, Bayview & York Mills in Toronto,[4] and Promenade in Vaughan.

Richtree's location at the Toronto Eaton Centre closed on March 9, 2020.[5]
