New York - Chico's FAS Inc. will bring its namesake brand to Canada, opening three stores in Ontario in August.



"We could not be more thrilled for the opening of the first Chico's boutique in Canada," said Cinny Murray, Chico's brand president. "I'm so excited to bring the women of Canada fabulous Chico's fashion; this is an incredible growth opportunity for our brand."



Chico’s Canadian outposts will be based on a new store prototype that features a mix of curated finishes and materials based in warm tones with subtle animal prints. Design elements include iconic woven entry doors, luggage details on fixtures and layers of artifacts as props.



The locations include Square One Shopping Centre in Mississauga, Ontario; Upper Canada Mall in Newmarket, Ontario; and Mapleview Shopping Centre in Burlington, Ontario.



Square One is owned by Oxford Properties Group and Alberta Investment Management Corporation (AIMCo). Upper Canada Mall is owned by Oxford Properties Group and Canada Pension Plan Investment Board (CPPIB). Mapleview Shopping Centre is owned and operated by Ivanhoe Cambridge.
