Garden City Shopping Centre

Seafood City Supermarket, the Filipino-owned Asian grocery chain whose Garden City Shopping Centre location on McPhillips Street in Winnipeg, Manitoba, serves the significant Filipino immigrant community that has established one of Canada’s largest Filipino population concentrations in the northern Winnipeg neighbourhoods of Garden City and the Maples, anchors the culturally specific grocery and daily food provisioning identity of the property alongside Canadian Tire, which anchors the automotive, hardware, and home goods category. Seafood City’s occupation of the former Sears anchor space gives it a floor presence that positions it as a primary traffic driver for the north Winnipeg household whose Filipino and Southeast Asian purchasing culture the property’s community food identity directly serves. Bell MTS, whose Manitoba Telecom Services heritage gives it a distinct provincial telecom identity in the Winnipeg household’s mobile purchasing culture, serves the Manitoba telecom retail category. Winners anchors the off-price comparison-shopping floor.

Garden City Square Liquor Mart, the Manitoba Liquor and Lotteries government retail outlet, serves the provincial beverage alcohol category. Bulk Barn serves the specialty bulk food and ingredients category. Sunrise Records gives the property a Canadian-owned independent music and entertainment retail identity. Foot Locker serves the athletic footwear category. Mark’s serves the Canadian workwear and casual fashion category. Fairweather, Bluenotes, and Ricki’s cover the accessible Canadian women’s fashion floor. Dollarama serves the value and household essentials category. Specsavers, Rizal Optical, and Pearle Vision serve the optical retail categories. Tim Hortons serves the daily café occasion. Tauber Music School gives the property a community music education identity. Freedom Mobile and Rogers serve the Canadian telecom retail categories alongside Bell MTS.

The property’s commercial role in north Winnipeg is the McPhillips Street Garden City community regional mall: a Seafood City-Canadian Tire Filipino community grocery and hardware anchor whose Winners off-price floor, Bell MTS Manitoba telecom, and Garden City Liquor Mart provincial retail give the Maples, Garden City, and north Winnipeg catchment a practical daily-needs and culturally specific provisioning destination in Manitoba’s capital.
