Celebrating 25 Years of Osmow’s Shawarma
Osmow’s journey began in 2001 when founder Sam Osmow purchased a small sandwich shop in Streetsville, Mississauga.
Over time, he introduced dishes inspired by the Middle Eastern flavours he enjoyed with his family. As more customers discovered the food, the business developed into the shawarma restaurant chain Canadians recognize today.
What started as one small restaurant has grown to 250 locations across Canada and the United States, with more than 50 million shawarmas sold since opening.
The family business continues to operate from its Mississauga headquarters, with Sam Osmow’s son, Ben Osmow, serving as CEO and his daughter, Bernadette Osmow, serving as President.
From Shawarma Wraps to ON THE ROCKS
Over the years, Osmow’s has expanded its menu beyond traditional shawarma wraps with signature dishes that have become recognizable parts of the brand.
Among them is Chicken ON THE ROCKS, which combines seasoned chicken shawarma, rice and sauces.
Another popular creation is Chicken ON THE STIX, featuring shawarma served with fries.
These dishes have helped establish Osmow’s as a familiar name in Canada’s growing shawarma restaurant scene.
The company introduced its annual National Shawarma Day celebration in 2020 as a way to recognize customers and celebrate the food that helped build the brand.
A Canadian Business With Community Roots
Despite its expansion across North America, Osmow’s continues to maintain strong connections to Mississauga, where its first restaurant opened.
In August 2026, founder Sam Osmow received the Key to the City of Mississauga in recognition of his contributions to the community.
The company also supports food security through the Osmow’s Hope Fund, which works with organizations including Second Harvest and Mary’s Meals.
As Osmow’s celebrates its 25th anniversary, National Shawarma Day offers customers an opportunity to take part in the celebration while enjoying familiar menu favourites at a reduced price.
