Hart @ Jackson Square

Marquisse · #1 Posted **Oct 25, 2011, 2:47 PM**

I just got news this morning that Hart Stores Inc. has started to liquidate the inventory in 32 of its 92 stores as part of its restructuring plan. Five stores in Ontario are to be liquidated.

They applied for CCAA protection in late August to restructure. They obtained an extension of the stay-period until early November.

Does anyone here know if Jackson Square has been affected?

All stores will maintain their regular operating hours and will continue to accept cash and credit cards.

The locations impacted by today's announcement include Hart Stores in: New Liskeard, Port Colborne, Sault St. Marie, Simcoe, and Whitby, ON; Chateauguay, Cowansville, Delson, La Pocatiere, Nicolet, Sherbrooke, Ste.-Marthe-sur-le-Lac, Trois-Rivieres, Valleyfield, Victoriaville and Ville de Quebec, QC; Grand Falls, St. John's and Miramichi, NB; Clarenville, Corner Brook, Labrador City, and Marystown, NL; and Port Hawkesbury and Windsor, NS. Bargain Giant stores being closed are located in Bay Roberts, Carbonear, Grand Falls, Lewisporte, Port-aux-Basques, and Stephenville, NL.

So, this seems not to impact the Hamilton location. Which, by the way, would not affect Jackson square seeing that Hart is in Hamilton City Centre and not Jackson Square

Steeltown, thanks.

Mark, we (family) have always referred to it as being at Jackson Square given it's proximity.
