Shopsy's is a Jewish delicatessen restaurant chain[1] in the Greater Toronto Area and a brand name owned by Maple Leaf Foods for a line of meat products.
Today, the main Deli is located at Toronto's Sheraton Centre and Maple Leaf Foods continue to sell Shopsy's branded hot dogs.
In 1921, the husband-and-wife team of Harry and Jenny Shopsowitz opened an 18-seat ice cream parlour at 295 Spadina Avenue at Dundas Street West in Toronto.
Future Toronto Maple Leafs owner Harold Ballard is said to have been the person who encouraged Sam to open a meat-processing plant.
Previous locations also include Markham, Ontario,[5] Toronto Island, and a Shopsy's Express Kiosk at the Rogers Centre.
