IN THE HEAT OF THE WEEKEND
New outlet store opens in Thunder Bay
Things have never been better on the Roots outlet front. Due to the incredible success of the 20 existing outlet locations in Canada, five more will be added to the “Roots 73” family in the second half of this year. The first of those opened this week in Thunder Bay, Ontario.
The all-important final stage of the Thunder Bay operation came together in near-record time thanks to the hard work of Field Business Manager Sanjiv Khanna; Senior Manager Colleen Weber; Visual Merchant Marie-Anne Laporte; and store manager Donna Andreychuk and her team. Also on hand to help, from the Head Office in Toronto, were Rosemary Eisenhut, Director of Retail, and Peter Paquette, Senior Visual Merchant. The final pre-opening preparations coincided with Thunder Bay’s first heatwave of the summer during which the city was actually one of the hottest places in Canada last weekend.
Next stop for Rosemary and Peter on their ‘Roots 73’ mission will be Brossard, Quebec where a massive shopping and entertainment complex will open in mid-September. It is currently the largest construction project in Quebec and Roots is excited to be a part of it.
Later this year, other ‘Roots 73’ stores are slated to open in Kanata (ON), London (ON), and Calgary.
