RONA is expanding its Network of stores

In Saint-Félix-de-Valois, in the Lanaudière region, construction of the new 25,000-square-foot RONA store will begin this year, with a scheduled opening in early 2017. It will be located on Henry-L.-Chevrette Boulevard. In Moose Jaw, the new RONA store will occupy 35,000 square feet of space in a location previously owned by Sobeys. Work is proceeding well with an opening scheduled for March.

As for the conversions of two RONA stores into big-box stores, the proximity store in Saskatoon recently became a RONA Home and Garden with the addition of 25,000 square feet. Work at the location lasted five months and was completed in January. The Châteauguay RONA store will see its retail space increase by 40%, adding 15,000 square feet, and will become a RONA L'entrepôt location. The interior of the store is being completely redesigned with work set to be completed in early March.
