Montreal's New Royalmount Mall Announced Its First Stores & Some Are A First For Quebec

Exciting news for local shopaholics. Starting in spring 2024, you'll find some renowned luxury stores never before seen in la belle province. Developers unveiled the first lessees Montreal's mega-mall Royalmount project in early November, including a series of fancy retailers.

Louis Vuitton and Gucci will make their dedicated brick-and-mortar debut in the Quebec shopping scene. They share stores with other brands elsewhere, but these will be their first stand-alone locations in the province, according to Royalmount.* The mall will also feature the province's first stand-alone RH homeware store.

The giant shopping mall, which will have more than 170 stores and restaurants, will further include ready-to-wear collections from Sandro and Maje.

Jewelry brand Tiffany & Co. will join the project with its largest store in the province.

In addition to (or, perhaps, despite) this unprecedented offering, developers vow online to promote sustainability and eco-responsibility, including a promise of carbon neutrality.

The $7 billion so-called "urban oasis" will have condos, offices, entertainment venues, a water park, aquarium, spa services, an outdoor piazza, a three-kilometre linear park, and 450,000 trees and plants.

"We're pleased that these renowned luxury brands have committed to opening retail locations at Royalmount, reflecting our view that this world-class project will redefine urban mixed-use development in Canada," Mathieu Le Bozec, Managing Partner of Royalmount co-owner L Catterton Real Estate, said in a press release.

*Editor's note: an earlier version of this article stated that the Royalmount will have Quebec's first Louis Vuitton and Gucci stores. They will be the brands' first stand-alone locations in Quebec.
