The history of Richtree Market restaurants cannot be told without tracing its origins to Mövenpick, a Swiss-based hospitality company. Reichert brought this revolutionary model to Canada, and opened the first Mövenpick Marché at Brookfield Place in 1992. A few years later, Reichert founded Richtree Market Restaurants Inc., and acquired the rights to operate and expand the concept under a new franchise model. Ironically, the flagship Brookfield Place location (originally Mövenpick, then Richtree) closed in 2010, only to reopen again under the Mövenpick Marché banner. In March 2020, the final Richtree Market, located at the Eaton Centre, closed its doors.
