Late in June, Hot Topic opened a 2950 square foot location in the Cornwall Centre in Regina, its second in Saskatchewan. Discussions are underway for another location in Western Canada and the Southern California-based chain continues to source locations in the better malls across the country. In Canada since 2010, there are currently about 35 stores in seven provinces. Hot Topic is a specialty chain of about 600 stores across North America that specializes in music-inspired fashion, officially licensed pop culture merchandise, and alternative lifestyle apparel. With this addition, limited opportunities in the 1500 to 3000 square foot range remain available in Cornwall Centre, the 570,000 square foot two-level enclosed mall on 11th Ave. in Regina’s downtown. Nathan Weinstein at Cushman & Wakefield Asset Services notes that target uses include ladies’ fashion and footwear. Surrounded by hotels, shops and entertainment, Cornwall Centre serves a trade area of over 272,900 people with an average annual household income in excess of $133,000. The daytime traffic is over 282,000 in the area.
