No Frills, one of Canada’s leading hard-discount grocery retailer under the Loblaw Companies Limited umbrella, has opened Komoka’s first No Frills, located at 370 Crestview Drive.

The company said the new store is the beginning of an evolution for No Frills.

This opening of Mike & Grace’s No Frills introduces a new look to the community, featuring an innovative hybrid timber and steel design that creates a warmer and more inviting atmosphere, offering a fresh take on the traditional warehouse feel. Although the store has a distinct new design, customers can continue to rely on the same great value, quality products, and everyday low prices they know from
No Frills, said the company.

“We are incredibly proud to open the first of our newly designed No Frills stores right here in Komoka,” said Melanie Singh, President, Hard Discount, Loblaw Companies Limited. “This new format represents a step forward, with a more modern and accessible store design while maintaining the same everyday low prices customers have always trusted.”

In a LinkedIn post, Per Bank, President and CEO of Loblaw Companies Limited, which operates the No Frills brand, said from construction site to community store what a difference three weeks make.

“The same store we walked through just weeks ago with teams working around the clock, details still coming together is now a fully finished No Frills, ready to serve customers from day one. And what a transformation,” he said.

“From the outside, a fresh, modern look that stands out in the community. On the inside, exactly what matters most: a discount store filled with fresh, high-quality groceries at great prices. This is what great retail execution looks like, turning plans into reality, and hard work into something customers can experience every single day.

“I’m incredibly proud of the teams who made this happen. Opening a store is never simple but when you see the finished result and the first customers walking through the doors, it’s all worth it.”
