Sephora Is About to Open Its 150th Canadian Store, and It's Not Slowing Down
The beauty retailer will cross the 150-store mark in Canada on November 13 with a new Oakville, Ontario, location, filling shelf space Nordstrom and Hudson's Bay left behind.
Sephora will open its 150th Canadian store on November 13 in Oakville, Ontario, marking a milestone in a steady, multi-year expansion across the country. The retailer has been methodically building out its Canadian footprint, adding locations as competitors have pulled back or disappeared entirely.
The Oakville opening will also introduce La Prairie to the store's assortment and comes alongside an expanded partnership with Shoppers Drug Mart, which has added Sephora refill fountains to select locations. The timing isn't an accident: both Nordstrom and Hudson's Bay have recently exited parts of the Canadian market, leaving prestige beauty shelf space that Sephora has been happy to absorb.
