Well if you live in Cobourg or area, you have probably seen a lot of development over the past year or so.
One of those developments is the new Giant Tiger that is being built as part of the Northumberland Mall.
The store – which is slated to be open tomorrow (June 12) – will have a large shopping area, groceries and will sell seasonal items.
Giant Tiger has been around since May 3rd, 1961, when Gordon Reid, Founder and Chairman, opened his first Giant Tiger store in Ottawa.
The business was launched with a $15,000 investment and first year sales were $139,781.
The business was started with a very simple idea – keep the cost of operation low and sell a large volume of merchandise at low prices.
This grand opening will bring employment to between 35-40 people at the newest location in Cobourg.
*The store will not be selling beer and alcohol as first reported.
