Target to open 20 more stores across Canada

The openings mark the first Target store locations in Saskatchewan and follow the opening of 48 stores across Canada earlier this year.

These 20 locations officially push Target past the halfway mark for store openings this year, as the retailer plans to open 124 stores across Canada throughout 2013.

“After opening stores in Ontario and Western Canada, we’re excited to  bring the unique Target brand shopping experience to additional locations in these markets and to welcome our first guests in Saskatchewan,” said Tony Fisher, president, Target Canada.

Guests will be welcomed into bright, clean stores with wide aisles, great guest service and a trend-right merchandise assortment. The majority of the 20 locations will feature a licensed Starbucks, as well as an in-store pharmacy designed to provide guests with superior patient-centered healthcare.

Target is committed to providing Canadian guests with a one-stop shopping destination for affordable, stylish, quality products, including beauty, apparel and accessories,  home, grocery, personal care and more. 

Each store will carry an extensive range of Target owned and exclusive brands, including C9 by Champion, Circo, Archer Farms, Market Pantry and up & up; exclusive, limited time collaborations with Roots and footwear brand Sam & Libby; and ongoing collaborations such as the Nate Berkus Collection, the Sonia Kashuk Collection, Giada De Laurentiis for Target, and Shaun White apparel.
