Liberty Village will soon have plenty of choices in natural, vegan and organic fresh foods for residents of this popular neighbourhood in Toronto. Organic Garage Ltd. just announced they have signed the lease for a historic property at 42 Hanna Avenue where they plan to open their new Ontario location.
Organic Garage opened its first store in Oakville, Ontario in 2006, carrying on an ancestral family tradition of selling more affordable fresh foods and groceries, or as their slogan states, “Healthier food for less!”. Their newest store in Liberty Village will place the family-run business not far from the site of their grandfathers’ grocery store on 374 College Street, which opened in 1931 and operated continually by successive family members until its closure when the current CEO, Matt Lurie, was a boy.
According to their own corporate web site, “The company’s stores are in prime retail locations designed to give customers an inclusive, unique and value-focused grocery shopping experience.”
Organic Garage has established a reputation for affordable organic and natural health supplements, organic produce and groceries targeting consumers of non-GMO and eco-sustainable foods and health & beauty products. Additional offerings promised for this new 13,000 sq. ft. location will include a specialty beverage and juice bar for kombucha, cold-brewed coffee and other nutritional beverages; food bars for sushi and specialty foods, and self-serve kiosks.
They currently have stores in Vaughan and in Toronto’s Junction district, while another location at 33 Laird Drive is scheduled for opening in 2018.
