Tim Hortons Inc. is setting up shop near Fort Knox, home to U.S. government's main gold storehouse.
The king of Canada's coffee and doughnut industry says the new 24-hour Tim Hortons in Kentucky will be its first on the grounds of a U.S. military facility. It's also another location the company can add to the growing roster of its restaurants operating near popular tourist destinations in the United States.
The Ontario-based company has about 500 stores in the United States and about 3,500 locations in total, mostly in Canada. Tim Hortons already has stores on seven Canadian military bases and also in Kandahar, Afghanistan.
