Lazeez Shawarma partners with the Canadian Blind Cricket Association to support inclusive sport and strengthen communities across the GTA.
MISSISAUGA, ONTARIO, CANADA, July 15, 2026 /EINPresswire.com/ -- Ontario's fast-growing shawarma network extends its community-first values to championinclusive sport across the GTA.
Lazeez Shawarma, one of Ontario's fastest-growing quick-service restaurant networks, today reaffirmed its commitment to the communities it serves
through a new partnership with the Canadian Blind Cricket Association (CBCA), a Greater
Toronto Area organization making cricket accessible to athletes who are blind or partially
sighted.
With roughly 67 locations across Ontario, Lazeez Shawarma has grown by staying close to the
people behind every restaurant — the families, teams, and local gathering places that give each
community its character. For Lazeez, community isn't a campaign; it's the way the brand does
business. Partnering with the CBCA is the latest expression of that belief: showing up for people,
celebrating what they can do, and helping open the game to everyone.
"Everything we've built comes back to community — that's who we are as a brand," said Chief Executive Officer of Lazeez Shawarma. "When we saw the heart, the skill, and
the teamwork these athletes bring to the field, we knew we wanted to stand with them. Lazeez
has always been about more than food. It's about being there for the people and communities that
welcome us in, and there's no better example of that than the Canadian Blind Cricket
Association."
That community-first mindset runs through Lazeez's broader 2026 efforts across the GTA —
meeting people where they gather, from local fields to civic celebrations, and investing in the
moments that bring people together.
Blind cricket is played under internationally recognized rules developed by World Blind Cricket,
with adapted equipment and player classifications that keep the game fair, safe, and inclusive.
Through its support, Lazeez Shawarma joins a growing community helping expand access to the
sport across Canada.
