Introduction
Wannawafel was founded in 2009 here in Victoria BC by a Belgian family in search of something new in this market. Grown up in Belgium we could not found real belgian waffles, all the North American waffles are called 'Belgian waffles' and that's where we had to step in and reeducate, one waffle at the time.
Renaat started with a self designed waffle cart, learned the waffle trade and during a successful first summer season in the inner Harbour of Victoria he realized that people would be missing there waffles in the wintertime, that is when we opened up our first little store at Market Square. Early 2010 a second cart got built which was just in time ready to travel to Toronto on a 9 day-9000km journey, en route to fame. Renaat and Arno made it to the CBC Dragons'Den Show and impressed the five Dragons so much that the emails and requests overwhelmed them very much. The exposure was incredible, the funding never matured, the dragons' reputation tarnished as help was never offered, this family faced a huge mountain to climb. Krista and Dana have focussed on the local store and Renaat and Arno managed the carts. Hands on and friendly interaction with the customer is what we stand for and therefor it becomes difficult to grow the business, nobody wants to give away their baby, even though a store in Grande Prairie and some waffle carts in BC and Alberta are helping to spread the waffle love. Since 2012 these, probably best waffles in Canada are also served at most Qoola Frozen Yogurt locations.
We managed well and are very proud to be still standing after five hard and hard working years, we started from scratch, make waffles from scratch and serve with passion and heart. Our creation and story has inspired many, the emotional success and feedback has kept us going and we are very grateful for all the incredible support we have experienced. If we could only tell the whole story or better, let us focus on waffles, that's what we do best. Organic growth is best manageable, one waffle at the time. We look forward to welcome you! Careful, there is no way back.
