The Quebec City barbecue retailer, in financial difficulty, is temporarily closing its three stores and its online shop for the winter.

  • Whether investors will back a restructuring

The company says it is in talks with investors to restructure and has not filed for bankruptcy; it already restructured under creditor protection in 2023, which led to layoffs.

BBQ Québec products are still sold by authorized retailers such as RONA, and customers waiting for an order will be contacted, the company says.
