Brazilian and Canadian Franchise Businesses Plan to Expand in Orlando
Two international brands are planning for Orlando-area expansions.

Two international franchise brands, Meltwich Food Co. from Canada and Spoleto Italian Kitchen from Brazil, are bringing their concepts to Orlando as part of their U.S. expansion plans.
Meltwich Food Co. is known for comfort food staples like specialty grilled cheeses, burgers, and poutine. Executive VP Ryan Hillis shared that the brand is aggressively expanding across the U.S., including two planned Orlando locations. The first will open in September at 12100 Collegiate Way, Orlando, FL 32817, while details on the second location are still pending.
Founded in 2015 in Toronto, the franchise has gained popularity for its creative menu items, such as the Southern Fried Chicken Melt and The Grilly Steak, served on grilled cheese burger buns.

Spoleto Italian Kitchen, a fast-casual Brazilian franchise, is also eyeing growth in Central Florida. Known for its build-your-own pasta and Italian-inspired dishes, the franchise will soon open a new location at 21 S Main St, Winter Garden, FL 34787.
Co-franchisee Ross Maldonado shared that while construction delays have pushed the Winter Garden opening to mid-February, the brand remains committed to expanding its footprint in the region. Future plans include opening a new location every other year based on performance.
With Meltwich and Spoleto targeting the Orlando area, look forward to Canadian comfort food and customizable Italian cuisine. Stay tuned for updates as these businesses make their mark in the city.
