The new store is part of Giant Tiger’s aggressive expansion strategy across the country. With more than 250 locations currently open across Canada, the Ottawa-based chain has plans to open 10 to 15 new stores every year for the next three to five years.

The new Halifax store celebrated its grand opening July 27 with activities from free face-painting to gift card giveaways and food sampling.

Giant Tiger Stores Limited and store manager Chris McDonald made a charitable donation to support Souls Harbour Rescue Mission, and there was a charity barbecue, with all proceeds going to Big Brothers Big Sisters.
