Polo Park

CF Polo Park is the principal Winnipeg super-regional shopping centre at 1485 Portage Avenue in the St. James district of Winnipeg, opened in 1959 as one of the first enclosed shopping centres in Canada with the contemporary 135,000-sqm super-regional format following successive expansions making it the largest shopping centre in Manitoba. The property is owned and managed by Cadillac Fairview as the flagship CF Manitoba retail asset and the dominant Winnipeg metropolitan retail destination.

The format combines the Hudson’s Bay Company, Sport Chek, and Winners anchor stores with the comprehensive international and Canadian retail register featuring H&M, Zara, Lululemon, Apple, Sephora, Dynamite, Reitmans, Ardene, and the broader Canadian and international fashion programming. The Cineplex Cinemas multiplex anchor with VIP auditoriums, the dedicated family entertainment programming, the comprehensive food court and dining circuit, the dedicated luxury boutique row, the Shoppers Drug Mart health-and-beauty anchor, and the broader retail-and-services programming serving the Winnipeg metropolitan catchment complete the contemporary Winnipeg super-regional offer.

The catchment combines the dense Winnipeg residential demographic of approximately 780,000 city residents with the broader Winnipeg CMA concentration of approximately 900,000 metropolitan residents and the regional draw from the southwestern Manitoba prairie catchment drawing from Brandon, Steinbach, and the broader Manitoba agricultural community. Direct accessibility includes the direct Portage Avenue arterial as the principal east-west Winnipeg spine, the Winnipeg Transit network serving the Route 21 rapid transit corridor, and the dedicated parking infrastructure for approximately 6,000 vehicles.

Cadillac Fairview coordinates the property management of CF Polo Park as the flagship Manitoba CF retail asset. The asset’s commercial role within the Canadian retail map is the dominant Manitoba super-regional destination and the largest enclosed mall in the Prairie provinces west of West Edmonton Mall, serving as the national retail gateway for the Winnipeg metropolitan market and the broader southwestern Manitoba agricultural catchment region within the broader Canadian Prairie retail register.
