Putting Edge is expanding in GTA West and Mississauga and CBRE’s Suburban Retail Team, headed up by Karlyn Knafo, is handling this next phase of growth. Immediate plans call for an opening in the Etobicoke to Oakville market in late 2026 followed by one new location every two years. The chain is also exploring the Calgary and Vancouver markets with plans of two locations in each market. A leader in mini-golf entertainment with its ‘glow-in-the-dark’ black-light, ocean, jungle and outer space-themed 18-hole courses that provide an active entertainment experience for players of all ages, the 31-year old Putting Edge currently operates nine locations in Nova Scotia, Quebec and Ontario along with three locations in the United States, in Florida and Michigan. In addition to the 18-hole golf course, the units provide party rooms, an interactive arcade and concessions designed to create a destination of choice for parties, corporate functions or simply a fun outing with friends and family. Introduced in Brampton in Ontario in 1995, the franchise concept targets 9000 to 10,000 square foot high locations with a minimum of 22-foot clear ceiling height and the ability to add up to 2000 square feet of mezzanine area. Open locations near other attractions, restaurants and sufficient parking are necessary.
