I wish them well, but I find this an odd location. If Lush were really attempting to test the Moncton market prior to opening a full service permanent location, I feel strongly that they should have opened a kiosk at CF Champlain instead. Their permanent store locations are almost always mall based (with some high street locations in larger cities), so I don't think a mobile location in a park in December in Moncton will give a fair appraisal of the strength of the Moncton market.
I am pretty sure a mall based pop-up would generate more traffic than a trailer in a park in front of city hall..........

I feel like there was probably no room for them to set up in CF Champlain. So maybe that's why they chose to set up in front of city hall? I agree with it being an odd location. But hopefully people will give it a lot of support, so they decide to open a permanent location.
Here is an example of what the pop-up will most likely look like:

Also, one of the city councillors (Greg Turner) confirmed that the pop up will be 1,200sq.ft in size and will be open Monday-Saturday: 11am-8pm and Sunday: 12pm-5pm.
