Eataly, an Italian gourmet food market, will soon be setting up shop in downtown Toronto’s Manulife Centre, despite previous roadblocks.
Earlier this year, BuzzBuzzNews reported that Eataly was having issues with the planned opening of a 39,000-square-foot, three-floor location in the Manulife Centre. This was due to an injunction won by The Bloor Street Diner, which also occupies space in the complex.
Now, however, Eataly is set to open up shop in Toronto within the next few years.
Headquartered in Monticello d’Alba, Italy, Eataly operates locations across Europe and Asia and currently has three stores open in the United States.
The Weston family owns 52 per cent of Eataly’s Canadian operation. The Manulife Centre location will be the company’s first in Canada.
