Simons to open new flagship store in Toronto
Canadian retailer Simons is set to open its first flagship store in Toronto at Yorkdale Shopping Centre on August 14.
The Yorkdale location will be the first of two new urban Toronto stores opening this year and will span more than 118,000 square feet across two levels.
Designed in collaboration with Lemay-Michaud Architecture and Toronto-based Gensler Design, the store will reflect Simons' uniquely Canadian aesthetic, which draws inspiration from natural elements.
It will house labels exclusive to Simons, international designers, as well as local brands and artists to be revealed at the opening.
"At Simons, serving our customers is our greatest privilege," said Bernard Leblanc, president and CEO of Simons.
"On August 14, we're proud to open our doors at Yorkdale Shopping Centre and invite Torontonians to discover the distinctive blend of fashion, art, and design that defines Simons. Our history and success have always been rooted in exceptional service — a commitment to our customers, our employees, and our partners — and we can't wait to share it with Toronto firsthand.'
The Yorkdale store will become Simons' 18th location in Canada, adding to a growing national footprint that includes ten stores in Quebec, three in Alberta, and one each in British Columbia, Nova Scotia, and Ontario.
