You all post about boring chain store and restaurant expansions into Canada, and nothing on a truly interesting retail expansion project, the expansion of the downtown Montreal Ogilvy store.
The expanded store will become the largest luxury store in Canada, and will include Holt Renfrew, but under the Ogilvy name.
This is an interesting project, which shows a national chain like Holt Renfrew can make decisions to keep history and play it off in different cities. Keeping the Ogilvy name and other touches will really set this store apart from other places, especially Nordstroms, which tends to do boring suburban looking stores.
This is also a great shot in the arm for downtown Montreal retail and one of Canada's legendary stores.
