Zellers Expands Across Canada: Discover Potential New Store Locations
Zellers is set to embark on a major expansion across Canada. The retailer announced plans for new store openings, officially marking the beginning of its “Zellers 3.0” concept. The news comes on January 22, 2026, following the successful launch of its first standalone store at Londonderry Mall in Edmonton.
Zellers 3.0: A Fresh Retail Concept
The latest iteration of Zellers aims to blend nostalgia with modern shopping needs. This small-format department store will offer a range of products at accessible prices, while also reintroducing its beloved mascot, Zeddy, the teddy bear.
Product Variety and Store Features
The Edmonton store features a curated selection across multiple departments. Shoppers can find products specifically for:
- Men’s clothing
- Women’s apparel
- Kids’ and baby items
- Footwear and accessories
- Home essentials
- Seasonal items
In addition to clothing, the store offers kitchen essentials, decor items, and more, ensuring a valuable shopping experience. The focus on quality and affordability is central to the Zellers philosophy going forward.
Future Expansion Plans
Zellers plans to secure locations in every major Canadian market, as stated by chief operating officer Joey Benitah. “Our goal is to bring Zellers back to communities across the country,” he noted. More announcements regarding new store locations, product offerings, and details about the Zellers 3.0 concept are expected in the coming months.
The resurgence of Zellers follows its earlier presence through pop-up stores in Hudson’s Bay locations. While the closure of Hudson’s Bay stores seemed to signal the end for Zellers, the brand was revived when Les Ailes de la Mode acquired its trademarks. This led to the successful opening of the new location in Edmonton.
With this expansion, Zellers is positioned to capture the hearts of a new generation of customers while catering to the nostalgia of long-time fans. Stay tuned for more updates from Filmogaz.com as Zellers continues its revitalization journey across Canada.
