When asked about his experience with Dickeys Faisal said, “Being a part of a strong global brand such as Dickey's has been great. Their willingness to accommodate and serve the community is impressive and their product offerings are a testament to that.

The Texas-style barbecue brand is thrilled with their partnership with Faisal Khan Suri and his team. “It was shortly after I met Faisal that I knew he'd make a fine Dickey's partner,” said Jim Perkins, Dickey’s Executive Vice President of International Development and Support. “His professional demeanor, his previous corporate experience and his love and knowledge for the Muslim and non-Muslim community of greater Edmonton would only benefit the Dickey's brand, North of the border. I could not be more excited for him, his family and Leduc community.”
