Bath soap and home goods retailer Bath & Body Works has announced that it will be relocating into the former 5,010 square foot Microsoft location on Level One of the CF Toronto Eaton Centre in downtown Toronto.

The current 4,520 square foot space on Level Two, next to the former Disney Store, will close to make way for the summer 2022 relocation.

The new space was made available when Microsoft shuttered all 83 physical stores worldwide in June 2020, which affected seven Canadian locations in BC, Alberta and Ontario. Most recently, The Latest Scoop used the space as a pop-up location before relocating to the former True Religion jean storefront on Level three.

Bath & Body Works, Inc (formerly known as L Brands, Limited Brands and The Limited, Inc.) was created as a separate company in 2021 when then L Brands CEO announced that Victoria’s Secret and Bath & Body Works would be separated into two publicly traded companies.

L Brands was the home to a number of brands throughout the years, including Lane Bryant, Abercrombie & Fitch, Structure, Express and La Senza, which was sold to Regent in 2019.
