Canada’s largest Asian supermarket chain, T&T Supermarkets, will open a store in London, Ontario, on September 27, 2024. It will be located at 530 Oxford St W, at the intersection of Oxford St W and Wonderland Rd.
The 39,000 square foot store is poised to become the largest Asian supermarket in London, offering residents an extensive array of Asian groceries and prepared foods. The store’s arrival is particularly meaningful for T&T Supermarkets’ CEO, Tina Lee, who said that she has a personal connection to the city.
“As a former Western University student, I remember the three-hour carpools to Toronto just to shop at T&T,” Lee reminisced. “Those trips were more than just grocery runs; they were a cure for homesickness. Two decades later, I’m thrilled to bring the T&T experience to my old stomping grounds, knowing that London’s residents and students still crave what we have to offer.”
The new supermarket will be housed in a renovated strip mall owned by York Developments. The store opening will generate 120 new positions in the community.
Customers can look forward to an immersive food culture experience at the new T&T. The store will feature fresh produce, an extensive selection of Asian groceries, an in-house bakery, and a variety of prepared food stations. Highlights include a hot meal buffet bar, sushi counter, Hong Kong-style barbecue pork, and the popular Tianjin crepe station, catering to diverse tastes and preferences.
The London location will also offer the convenience of online ordering for both home delivery and click-and-collect services through the T&T website and mobile app.
Since its founding in Vancouver in 1993, T&T Supermarkets says it has been dedicated to introducing Canadians to the myriad flavours of Asia. With over 33 stores across British Columbia, Alberta, Ontario, and Quebec, T&T Supermarkets has established itself as a cornerstone of Asian-Canadian food culture. Under the leadership of CEO Tina Lee, the second-generation successor to the company’s founders, T&T continues to expand its reach and influence in the Canadian retail landscape.
That includes recent store announcements in the US for Washington State and California, where T&T has recently focused expansion efforts.
