What do you think about Sugarfina’s new collection? Let us know in the comments.
If you love luxurious candies you may already be familiar with popular L.A. based candy brand Sugarfina. If you are a fan, you’ll be pleasantly pleased to hear that you no longer have to rely on delivery or shopping at other candy stores as Sugarfina has just announced its first standalone Canadian location.
Our friends at Retail-Insider are reporting that Sugarfina will be opening their first stand-alone Canadian location at Metropolis at Metrotown in Burnaby, British Columbia.
The 1000+ square foot retail space will be located on Metrotown’s ground floor across from the new Burnaby Uniqlo.
We’ll keep you posted as more news is released.
Los Angeles-based, luxury grownup candy retailer Sugarfina has partnered with a Canadian brokerage to open stores in this country. Up to now, the brand’s products have only been available in Canada at retailers such as Nordstrom.
The Sugarfina concept includes premium items made from high-quality ingredients, sourced directly from artisan candy makers around the globe. Products include gourmet chocolates, caramels, gummies, malt balls, liquorice and other delicious confections. Champagne-infused gummies and maple bourbon caramels have been popular, with celebrity endorsements helping grow brand awareness. In the summer of 2016, Sugarfina introduced Rosé rose-shaped gummy bears, which were so popular they sold out within two hours while traffic caused the company’s website to crash. The wait list grew to more than 18,000 people.
