For those who love a good deal (and who doesn’t?), you’re in luck! Hudson’s Bay has launched an outlet division with a storefront in Toronto at Eglinton Square

The Hudson’s Bay location that occupies Eglinton Square has been restocked with clearance merchandise from Hudson Bay locations, creating a one-stop-shop for discount apparel, accessories, home goods, and more! 

“Transforming our Eglinton Square location into an outlet store for customers creates a fun and unique shopping destination, distinct from the Hudson’s Bay full-line experience.” Says Kosi Sivasankaran, Chief Stores Officer at Hudson’s Bay in a statement.

The new Toronto location will be re-stocked with products from full-priced Hudson Bay locations every two weeks, ensuring there will always be new pieces to shop on clearance! And in case you were wondering, customers can also earn Hudson’s Bay Reward points at the outlet location.

The outlet concept itself isn’t new to The Bay, as back in 2014 two Hudson Bay Outlet locations opened, one at Toronto Premium Outlets and one at Montreal Premium Outlets, both of which have since closed. There’s no time like the present to relaunch the concept!

Along with Toronto’s new Hudson’s Bay Outlet location, an existing store in Edmonton will also be modified to offer outlet pricing, as part of store downsizing. According to Retail Insider.

Canadian shoppers get excited for some real nostalgia (again). Zellers is set to enter Canada next year. 

Hudson’s Bay is playing a major role in reviving the brand once again, which is due to the fact that HBC still owns the rights to the name of the Zellers chain.

A post shared by 2day FM GP (@2dayfmgp)

According to HBC, Zellers will be back sometime next year stating, “Arriving early 2023, the distinctly Canadian retailer Zellers will debut a new e-commerce site and leverage the nationwide network of prime brick-and-mortar Hudson’s Bay locations as it expands its footprint in major cities across the country.”

So not only will you be able to shop the beloved discount store in person, but it’ll also be available online for the first time ever! 

For those who may not remember, Zellers launched a pop-up store last year in the Burlington Center Hudson’s Bay.  The classic Zellers logo hung high and the area was decked out in the red and white colour combo.

HBC says that some of the categories that you can expect are home decor, furniture, small appliances, and toys, with apparel coming shortly after, all at great prices. 

Although there isn’t any word on whether the iconic Zellers restaurant will return (which we’re really hoping it does), we’re still super excited to see the revival of this chain again in Canada. It’s really giving us all the feels!

The Canadian department store has found another partner. The Vancouver company MEC, is headed inside of select Hudson’s Bay locations. 

MEC, which stands for Mountain Equipment Company, will be taking over the previous Forever 21 spots that were inside Hudson’s Bay stores, according to Retail Insider

The three MEC stores that are opening by the end of 2022 will be at the Hudson’s Bay locations in Yorkdale Shopping Centre, Square One, and the downtown Toronto flagship store on Yonge Street. Plus, with more to open next year. 

Not only will MEC have a larger physical presence, but the brand will also be available on The Bay’s site

Retail Insider states that “the partnership was struck after multiple conversations between MEC and Hudson’s Bay, recognizing the opportunity for two iconic Canadian brands to come together under one roof.”

If you’re not familiar with MEC, it offers a ton of outdoor gear and equipment from well-known brands like The North Face and Patagonia, as well as its own in-house label. 

Next year’s expansion plans don’t have an exact date or locations listed just yet, so stay tuned.

Have you heard the news? A massive Hudson’s Bay location is, unfortunately, closing its doors for good in Toronto. The department store is located at 44 Bloor Street and will shutter on May 31st of this year.

After operating for almost 50 years, it’s definitely sad to see it go, but on the bright side, there are a ton of deals that you can’t miss out on.

The Hudson’s Bay Liquidation Sale is happening right now, which means that promos and savings are everywhere. We visited the location to find some of the top deals on the sales floor. Whether you’re interested in finding items for your Spring wardrobe or are just always down for a great bargain, it’s definitely worth a stop.

After browsing around The Bay location, the overall sale that you can expect is that everything is up to 50% off on the last ticketed price.

The deals that caught our eye are men’s and women’s clothing is 20% off, 30% off footwear, 40% off men’s suits, and 20% off small home appliances.

Be sure to get there soon, as once items are sold out, they’re gone for good!

Unfortunately, another one bites the dust. A popular Hudson’s Bay in Toronto is closing its doors in the next few months. 

The Hudson’s Bay located at 44 Bloor Street East will shutter on May 31, after operating for almost 50 years. 

According to an HBC spokesperson, Tiffany Bourré, the Hudson’s Bay Queen Street flagship is located so close to the Bloor Street one, that it makes sense to close it down. 

On the other hand, CityNews reported that HBC actually had quite a bit of rent payment issues during the lockdown with a handful of its stores.

This could also be a major reason that led to the decision of closing. 

Hopefully, this isn’t a sign of what has to come for other Hudson’s Bay stores in the future, as taking a browse around the department store is always a great shopping trip. 

If you can make it out to the location before the closing date, it might be worth it in case of any large blowout sales!

Now, this is a major throwback! After officially closing its last location in Canada over a year ago, Zellers is making a comeback. The Hudson’s Bay at the Burlington Centre has launched a Zeller’s pop-up store inside.

In case you didn’t know, HBC actually still owns the right to the name of the Zellers chain, which is why you’re able to shop it there. 

If you choose to browse the racks of the red and white retailer located on the second floor of The Bay, you’ll find a ton of Canada-themed apparel and home products.

Back in 1990, Zellers was operating over 350 stores across the country and was a staple to many Canadians. So in 2011 when store closures were first announced, many people were quite saddened by the news. 

The last two remaining Zellers in Etobicoke and Ottawa finally closed in early 2020.

Stay tuned for more info as we may be seeing even more Zellers pop-ups across Hudson’s Bay stores in the near future.

Fingers crossed!

Lululemon is in, and Hudson’s Bay is out. The Canadian Olympic Committee and Canadian Paralympic Committee have just announced that athletic apparel brand lululemon is the new Official Outfitter of Team Canada. 

This news has rocked the Canadian apparel industry. HBC has been part of dressing Team Canada since 2005, and actually took the spot over from Roots. 

We’ll see the change in branding beginning with the Olympic and Paralympic Winter Games in 2022.

This partnership will last at least until the Los Angeles 2028 Games.

Calvin McDonald, CEO, lululemon, said in a press release, “Supporting these incredible athletes as they prepare to compete on the world’s largest sporting stage is a privilege. Through this partnership, all of us at lululemon are honoured to play our part to inspire, unite and transform the world through sport and share in this excitement alongside all of Canada.”

Holding the title of Official Outfitter, lululemon will be designing all of Team Canada’s apparel and accessories for athletes, coaches, and Mission Team members.

You’ll be able to view the collections during the entirety of the Games which include the Opening and Closing Ceremonies, during the events, media opportunities, and everything in between.
