Sears Canada moves base to Eaton Centre
Sep 27, 2007 04:30 AM
Sears Canada Inc. is moving its head office to the Eaton Centre, just a few blocks away from the current Jarvis St. location.
Sears will make the shift to 290 Yonge St., at the corner of Yonge St. and Dundas St. W., from the current location at 222 Jarvis St., east of Ryerson University's main campus, the retailer said yesterday.
The new headquarters will fill the top four floors of the eight floors that Sears occupies at the building.
The four floors have recently sat empty.
"We have surplus space at the Toronto Eaton Centre which has been under-utilized for some time," chief executive Dene Rogers said in a release. "Occupying the top four floors as office space will help improve the productivity of the remaining four floors used for the store."
Sears has already sold its Jarvis St. building to the government of Ontario and is operating there under a lease. No job cuts are planned, the company said.
