Modern Fashion Retail Expansions

Simons, a longstanding figure in Canadian retail, is expanding its footprint with the introduction of two new urban stores in Toronto slated for fall/winter 2025. This strategic move, backed by a substantial $75 million investment, underscores Simons’ confidence in the Canadian market and its commitment to enhancing its national presence as a premier fashion retailer.

The two urban stores in Toronto will be located at Yorkdale Shopping Centre and CF Toronto Eaton Centre. They mark Simons’ 18th and 19th establishments in Canada, respectively. These stores are expected to generate approximately 400 new job opportunities and increase the brand’s annual sales by 15 percent in the Greater Toronto Area.

Each store will boast unique architectural designs by Lemay-Michaud Architecture and Gensler Design, inspired by natural elements and local artistry. At Yorkdale, a two-floor, 118,000-square-foot space will showcase a broad range of fashion offerings, while CF Toronto Eaton Centre’s street-level, 110,000-square-foot storefront across three levels will include an array of men’s and women’s styles, home furnishings, and locally sourced artworks.
