The List: 84 More New Target Canada Sites, Only 29 to be Target Stores
Target has announced the rest of its proposed locations of Canadian stores. Sort of.
Sobey's has been tapped to provide frozen, dry and dairy goods in the new Target stores, which should start to open in 2013. The US stores also carry fresh produce, but there's no word yet on whether that will be part of the stores here or who might supply it.
Also still no word on beauty brands, which in the US include the biggies such as P&G, L'Oréal, Johnson & Johnson and Unilever, as well as Revlon, E.L.F., Sonia Kashuk, Juice Organics, Lavera, Burt's Bees, Jemma Kidd and Pixi.
The retailer has confirmed the build of a new store in Toronto at St. Clair W and Weston Rd., and announced the acquisition of 84 more sites in addition to the 105 announced in May. But of those 84, only 29 will become Target stores, and they're not saying which ones. Here's the by-province/city list of new, additional potential Target locations across Canada (click the image to enlarge it):
And here's the list of the first 105 proposed Target locations -- maybe you want to start an office "Target pool"?
