Canadian Specialty Grocer Pusateri’s Plans Fourth Store

Oakville Place, a development in Oakville, Ontario, will be anchored by the addition of a new Pusateri’s Fine Foods. The opening of Pusateri’s is part of a $30 million dollar renovation that RioCan Oakville Place will be commencing in spring 2015, and is scheduled to be completed in late 2016. 

“We are pleased to see that our recent investments in a thriving center, with a strong loyal following of shoppers and tenants, has drawn the attention of a high-quality retailer such as Pusateri’s,” said Edward Sonshine, CEO of RioCan. “Pusateri’s brings their reputation of being one of the finest specialty food shops in the greater Toronto area to the retail mix at RioCan Oakville Place. With world-class offerings and superior, knowledgeable service, this will certainly be something that the Oakville market will be happy to discover.”

Centrally located in the well-established market of Oakville, with visibility from major highways, RioCan Oakville Place is the only enclosed shopping center in the area. The renovation, set for 2015 to 2016, is expected to further position RioCan Oakville Place as a leading shopping center southwest of Toronto.

“We are pleased to be expanding Pusateri’s to four stores in Ontario with our newest location at RioCan Oakville Place. This location will be the first Pusateri’s in Oakville and the first to open in nearly five years,” said Frank Luchetta, president of Pusateri’s Fine Foods. “We travel the world exploring new and distinct culinary experiences to share with customers. It is our unmatched passion for food and commitment to quality that inspires the diverse and exceptional selection of our products, and we are so pleased to be bringing this experience to the Oakville community.”

The RioCan Oakville Place Pusateri’s location is expected to create approximately 150 jobs and is scheduled to open in time for the holiday season late 2015.
