Loblaw Cos. Ltd. is increasing the number of new stores it plans to open this year, according to multiple reports.
The outlets say the additional locations are part of a broader capital spending plan. The Globe and Mail reports Loblaw has about $2.4 billion in planned capital spending for the year, with the new stores forming one component of that investment.
City News Toronto frames the update around the company’s expansion timeline and indicates the change applies to its 2026-related store plans, reported from Brampton. While the sources provide consistent details that store openings are being increased and tied to capital spending, they vary in how they describe the scope—some emphasize the number of planned openings, while others focus more on the overall investment figure.
