Wade Bruce Potikkis Founder

Meet Wade Bruce, Founder of Potikki’s

Wade Bruce is a seasoned entrepreneur with deep roots in Canada’s food industry. Raised on a PEI potato farm, he developed a strong work ethic early on. After years in potato distribution, he ventured into food franchising, launching Halifax’s first Smoke’s Poutinerie in 2011 and expanding to four locations.

​

In 2023, Wade introduced Potikki’s, an Indo-Canadian fusion restaurant inspired by beloved Indian street food Aloo Tikki (potato cutlets). Offering loaded fries, burgers, flatbreads, and bowls—with vegan, gluten-free, dairy-free, and halal options—Potikki’s quickly drew long lines and late-night crowds.

​

Now focused on franchising, Wade aims to bring Potikki’s bold flavors nationwide, providing entrepreneurs with a proven business model, strong brand identity, and ongoing support to make Potikki’s a household name in fast-casual dining.
