Target to celebrate its first from-the-ground-up build in Toronto

MISSISSAUGA, Ontario — Target is celebrating on March 14 the official grand opening of its Toronto Stockyards store. This is its first from-the-ground-up build in Toronto, which marks a major milestone for the retailer as it continues its expansion across the country through 2014.



“This Stockyards location was built from the ground up, providing us with the opportunity to build a prototypical Target store in terms of design and layout,” said Tony Fisher, president, Target Canada.  “We look forward to celebrating the grand opening of this brand new store, which further reinforces our continued investment in the Canadian market and our commitment to bringing the Target brand experience to guests across the country.”



Two other Target store locations, including a store at Kingsway Mall in Edmonton, Alberta and one at Hillside Centre in Victoria, B.C., will also be hosting grand opening celebrations on March 14.



The stores will feature a licensed Starbucks, as well as in-store pharmacies.
