Upscale Belgian fashion label Sarah Pacini is set to expand across Canada. The company confirms that it will open store locations in suburban Toronto and Montreal. A Vancouver location is also being negotiated and according to a source, stores in other Canadian cities could follow.
The Sarah Pacini brand has been in existence for over 20 years and it sells women’s knitwear, ready-to-wear and accessories to a female target market aged 28-55. Products are manufactured in Italy. It currently has two Canadian stores, both in Montreal: at Les Cours Mont Royal in downtown Montreal, and 1061 Avenue Laurier Ouest in Outremont.

The new Sarah Pacini store locations will be at Toronto’s Bayview Village shopping centre and at Le Carrefour Laval in suburban Montreal. We’re not yet sure of the Vancouver store location currently under negotiation.
Sarah Pacini stores are generally 1,350-1,750 square feet in size. Store interiors include a mixture of stone, wood, metal and concrete.
Beverly Hills, California, and in New York City are the only two American cities that have Sarah Pacini stores.
Make sure that you don’t pick up the wrong size, as there are no exchanges on sale items, even for a size exchange.
Poor business model for North America.
