Global lifestyle retailer Miniso is bringing one of its store formats to a new market for the first time.

The company has opened its first Super Miniso store outside of China at Square One Shopping Centre in Mississauga, the largest shopping center in Ontario, Canada. Designed for urban consumers, Miniso says the Super Miniso format is positioned as a “landmark lifestyle destination” that brings together a curated and balanced blend of IP collectibles and lifestyle products.

Super Miniso uses themed displays and extended experience spaces to bring products, characters and cultural interests together. Rather than separating IP products from everyday products, Miniso says the store creates a more connected journey between discovery and daily life.

The debut of Super Miniso outside of China is part of a broader rollout of Miniso’s IP theme park-style stores across Canada, with four locations opening from October to November. This includes three Super Miniso stores in Mississauga, Winnipeg and Montreal, and the first Miniso Land in Toronto.

While Super Miniso offers a balanced blend of IP collectibles and quality lifestyle products, Minso Land delivers a more immersive, IP-centric experience with a stronger focus on IP-inspired merchandise, according to the company.

“Miniso’s store format strategy reflects its ambition to build a distinctive brand through IP, creating deeper connections with consumers through culture, creativity and shared interests,” said Miniso. “It represents another step toward Minisp’s vision of becoming the world's leading IP operation platform, bringing an IP-led brand model to international markets.”

Miniso stores feature a wide variety of lifestyle products such as household goods, cosmetics, toys and more, along with distinctive IP collaborations. As of June 30, 2026, the company operated more than 8,600 stores worldwide, with more than half of them located in China.

Miniso opened more than 700 new stores globally in 2025.
