nect customers to a wide range of hardware products
by virtual access to the main store. We have also re-
cently rolled out a conference/seminar facility with the
latest in communication technology. This facility has
a capacity of 90 persons in a theatre settings and 50
persons in a seminar setting. The facility will collabo-
rate with our food court tenants to provide food and
beverage for conferences and seminars.”
The facility took on a sizable new tenant in the sum-
mer of 2014, when Massy Stores & Pharmacy opened
a new outlet, eight months after the closure of the
Trimart supermarket.
The new store occupies 33,000 square feet – includ-
ing 20,000 square feet of retail space – in a com-
pletely refurbished and re-designed space that is also
home to smaller retail outlets in front of the entry to
the supermarket, in addition to a large gym and well-
ness center upstairs.
Eastmond said customer traffic has increased signifi-
cantly since the 2012 changes were made, particu-
larly with the addition of the food court.
“Hallmark is the most recent international brand to
join us,” he said. “At present we are 100 percent ten-
anted in the retail space, with only 4000 square feet
remaining for office occupancy.”
The arrivals join a long-term roster that includes Pay-
less (offering fashion, jewelry and accessories, foot-
wear), Courts (home furnishings and accessories),
Brydens Stationery (school and office supplies) and
Upbeat (men’s and women’s apparel).
