Indigo, Canada’s leading purveyor of books, gifts, toys, ideas and inspiration,has announced the opening of its new Indigo location at CF Sherway Gardens and guys, it is gorgeous!
“We are thrilled to be launching our new store concept at the wonderfully redesigned CF Sherway Gardens,” said Heather Reisman, Indigo CEO and Chief Booklover. “We so look forward to welcoming everyone for a first visit.”
The new store reflects Indigo’s transformation from bookstore to cultural department store for booklovers.

Shops include Joy of the Table, A Room of Her Own, Home, The Art Shop, IndigoKids, and American Girl®.Indigo has really become a place that really takes you away and has you perusing their items for an embarrassingly long time but the new store concept is so inviting and allows you to do just that. Sit back, grab a noteworthy book and shop their gorgeous and adorable items.
Customers can look forward to the following features:
- Digital Inspiration Walls: In three sections of the store – Joy of the Table, A Room of Her Own, and Home – find inspiration on digital screens, which showcase Indigo’s key products and stories of the moment. Seasonally-relevant vignettes and videos on display capture attention and inspire imagination.
- Best of Gifting Wall: Find a curated range of unique, beautiful gifts that are as great to give as they are to receive. Customers will love the new “Best of Gifting Wall,” updated each month with a wide selection of books and gifts in one easy-to-access location just across from customer service. To add a personal touch to any gift, Indigo offers a new embossing station to monogram journals, pouches and totes.
