Vancouver’s Oakridge Park, Canada’s largest redevelopment endeavour, announced on Wednesday the lineup of inaugural jewelry brands set to grace the new shopping destination in spring 2025.
Among the names is Tiffany & Co. and legacy jeweller Chow Tai Fook, alongside Bvlgari and American luxury jewelry company, David Yurman, who will open their first standalone stores in the city. Likewise, Chaumet will debut its first standalone store in North America.
“Vancouver is cementing its status as a premier global retail experience with the introduction of these iconic brands at Oakridge Park,” said Chrystal Burns, executive vice president, Canadian Retail at QuadReal Property Group.
“Nestled within one of the world’s most desirable cities to live in, Oakridge Park transcends the vibrant cultural tapestry of Vancouver, drawing in a diverse range of consumers and contributes significantly to our economy. It sets a new standard for urban spaces, seamlessly integrating retail, residential, and sustainability through innovative design.”
The luxury watch segment will equally be well represented, with Jacob & Company marking its largest store in Western North America and Rolex unveiling a boutique, spanning over 6,000 square feet. Tag Heuer and Tudor also make their mark with dedicated standalone stores.
Sassan Pourfar, founder at Global Watch Company added: “The inauguration of the second Rolex and Tudor boutique by Global Watch Company in Vancouver is poised to establish the store as one of the most iconic luxury destinations in the city. The opening represents an exciting prospect for Vancouver’s global recognition and economic vitality. Anticipated is a surge in tourists drawn to Oakridge Park by the grandeur of Rolex’s exquisite craftsmanship and unparalleled heritage in luxury timepieces, alongside the innovative spirit and distinct design ethos of Tudor. The opening of these two iconic boutiques will indeed elevate Vancouver’s status as a premier destination for high-end retail experiences.”
Earlier this year, Oakridge Park announced its first lineup of inaugural brands including luxury names such as Louis Vuitton, Prada, Brunello Cucinelli, Moncler, Versace, and Max Mara. Joining them will be Maison Margiela, Miu Miu, Christian Louboutin, and Alexander Wang, marking the first standalone luxury fashion boutiques in Vancouver.
Oakridge Park’s grand opening in Spring 2025 promises a showcase of over 100 premier brands across 650,000 square feet, with additional announcements slated throughout the year.
