HBC is bringing back Zellers in response to the trademark infringement in Quebec. The "store" will be inside Hudson Bay Stores. They are going to have to play in the field of Costcos and other discount stores.
Do you remember the slogan "The lowest price is the law?"
Multiple news outlets are reporting that the Hudson's Bay Co. is bringing back the iconic store it shut down a decade ago.
Zellers is remembered as the store with the affordable prices and it was my go-to store for small housewares, children's clothing and toys.
Now multiple retailers have entered the marketplace offering reasonable prices, including popular dollar stores, while the thrift behemoth Value Village has expanded in Canada.
Zellers will start as an online retailer with brick and mortar stores coming next year.
