Southcentre Mall is expanding its beauty and lifestyle offering with the arrival of SUKOSHI, opening its second Calgary location on Saturday, May 2.
The Toronto-founded retailer has built a strong presence across North America by introducing customers to sought-after skincare, makeup, and lifestyle products from Korea, Japan, and across Asia, categories that continue to see growing interest among Canadian consumers.
“At Southcentre, we’re focused on bringing in brands that reflect how our customers are shopping today,” said Alexandra Velosa, Marketing Manager at Southcentre Mall. “SUKOSHI introduces a highly curated and globally relevant beauty concept that adds something new and distinct to the Calgary market.”
Since launching in 2018, SUKOSHI has expanded steadily across Canada and the United States, with more than 20 locations and plans to surpass 40 stores by the end of 2026. The brand works with a wide network of established and emerging beauty labels, offering customers access to hundreds of products that emphasize quality, innovation, and everyday usability.
Its Southcentre store is designed to support a more hands-on shopping experience, where customers can explore new products, learn about ingredients and routines, and receive guidance from in-store teams—an approach that continues to resonate as shoppers look for more confidence in their purchases.
“Calgary has been an incredibly strong market for us, and expanding within the city was a natural next step,” says Linda Dang, Co-Founder and Chief Executive Officer of SUKOSHI. “Southcentre offers the kind of environment where customers can take their time, discover new products, and really engage with the experience.”
The opening also reflects a broader shift back toward in-person retail, particularly in categories like beauty where trial, education, and personalization play a key role in the customer journey, she said.
To celebrate the launch, the Southcentre location will offer a series of grand opening incentives on May 2, including limited-time giveaways and gifts with purchase for early customers, while quantities last.
