Target Corporation announced Friday that Metropolis at Metrotown in Burnaby will be home to a future Target location, slated to open in winter of 2013.
As previously announced, Target purchased the leasehold interest in the Metropolis at Metrotown site, which is currently operated by Zellers Inc. Target plans to open 125 to 135 stores in Canada, the majority of which will open in 2013. Approximately $10 million to $11 million will be invested to remodel each facility in order to bring the full Target brand experience to Canadian communities.
This Burnaby location will employ approximately 150-200 employees, the company said, and hiring will begin in 2013. Those interested in working for Target are asked to visit www.Target.ca/careers to learn more.
