T&T SUPERMARKETS CONTINUES TO EXPAND FOOTPRINT WITH FOUR NEW STORES IN 2022

VANCOUVER, BC, March 3, 2022 /CNW/ - Continuing its steady expansion across the country, T&T Supermarkets today announced plans to open two stores in Western Canada over the next year. These are in addition to a new location in Toronto at CF Fairview Mall and T&T's first store in Montreal, both announced in recent months. 

"T&T stores have increasingly become a community gathering place, where customers go to get out of the house, enjoy the shopping experience, and bump into old friends," said Tina Lee, CEO of T&T Supermarkets. "We are excited to bring this experience to the local community in Northwest Calgary, with our Sage Hill location, as well as the growing communities of Lougheed, Burquitlam, and the students of Simon Fraser University with our new Coquitlam location."

Opening December 2022, the new Calgary store at 10 Sage Hill Plaza NW, will be the fourth T&T Supermarkets location in the city. The new Coquitlam T&T located at the intersection of Lougheed and King Edward at 1085 Woolridge Street, is also expected to open in late 2022 and will be the second location serving the local community. These two new stores will bring T&T Supermarkets store count to 33 locations across Canada.

"The opening of four new T&T locations over the next year is a testament to T&T's thriving business, as Canadians embrace new flavours and trends, while also seeking the traditional foods and comforts of home," said Robert Sawyer, Chief Operating Officer, Loblaw Companies Limited. "We're proud of the T&T Supermarkets team for what they've been able to accomplish and look forward to supporting the business' growth in the future."
