Swiss watchmaker OMEGA has opened a new flagship boutique at Calgary’s Chinook Centre, expanding its retail footprint in Canada and marking its second flagship location in the country.
The company hooking into a major Alberta shopping centre signals a continued focus on Canada as a growth market, with the new store intended to serve customers in Calgary and the surrounding region.
Second Canadian flagship
Raynald Aeschlimann, OMEGA’s president and chief executive officer, said the Calgary opening reflects the brand’s strategy in Canada and its intention to deepen customer relationships through dedicated retail locations.
“Our new Boutique in Calgary is a symbol of OMEGA’s growing presence in Canada, which continues to be a significant and important market for our brand. We’re delighted to have our second flagship boutique in Canada and connect with new clients across the region. It’s an exciting store inside a beautiful luxury mall, and we look forward to welcoming everyone inside,” Aeschlimann said.
The company did not disclose financial details related to the boutique, including investment size, staffing levels or projected sales.
