With approximately ten locations across major shopping centres in the Greater Montreal Area, Electrocell is continuing its expansion throughout Montreal and surrounding markets. More than a traditional cellphone retailer, Electrocell specializes in electronics repair and service, including cellphones, tablets, laptops, computers, gaming consoles and other electronic devices. The stores also carry a broad selection of accessories for phones, computers and other electronics. The company’s primary focus is on high-traffic enclosed malls, with a preference for inline locations in the 600 to 1,000 square foot range. Depending on the market and opportunity, Electrocell will also consider prominent, high-volume kiosk locations of approximately 150 square feet. The company is actively sourcing opportunities throughout Greater Montreal, Ottawa and Quebec City with particular interest in units in which a full-service store can combine retail sales with onsite technicians to provide immediate electronics repair services. Electrocell’s expansion strategy is focused on securing larger, higher-profile locations that showcase its complete offering while providing customers with convenient and professional repair services directly within the shopping centre. Frederique Gareau with the Groupe Immobilier Gareau is responsible for the site selection for the chain.
