Galeries Aylmer

Super C, the Quebec-founded discount supermarket operated by Metro Inc., anchors Galeries Aylmer in the Aylmer sector of Gatineau, Quebec, at Boulevard Principale and Rue Principale in the western Outaouais residential corridor adjacent to the Ontario border. Chocolats Favoris, the Quebec-founded artisan chocolate fondue and specialty chocolate brand whose dipping chocolate concept and Quebec origins give it a commercially native food identity the Francophone consumer treats as one of the province’s most distinctive artisan confectionery experiences, gives the property a Quebec-specific specialty food identity. Jean Coutu serves the Quebec pharmacy and personal care category. SAQ Sélection, the Quebec government liquor retail operator, serves the wine and spirits category. Tigre Géant, the Quebec-founded general merchandise and sporting goods chain, serves the sporting goods and home goods floor. Rossy, the Quebec-founded discount variety retailer, gives the property a value general merchandise identity.

La Boite à Grains serves the natural and organic grocery category. Dollarama and Couche-Tard serve the value retail and convenience categories. Chaussures Yellow and Thrifty’s by Bluenotes cover the accessible footwear and fashion floors. La Fromentine Resto-Epicerie africaine gives the property a West African food identity reflecting the Aylmer community’s growing Congolese and West African immigrant population. Bijouterie Damas and Bijouterie Chateau D’Or serve the fine jewelry floor. STO Point de service, the Société de transport de l’Outaouais transit authority’s service office, gives the property a community services identity.

The property’s commercial role in the Outaouais is the Aylmer sector community mall: a Super C-anchored format whose Chocolats Favoris Quebec artisan chocolate identity, Tigre Géant Quebec sporting goods floor, and La Fromentine West African food identity serve the Aylmer and western Gatineau Francophone and immigrant household as the primary community retail and daily-needs destination in the Outaouais western residential corridor.
