It will be the Seattle-based retailer’s seventh Nordstrom Rack location in Canada, with other locations open in Calgary (Deerfoot Meadows), Edmonton (South Edmonton Commons), Toronto (Vaughan Mills and One Bloor), Mississauga (Heartland Town Centre), and Ottawa (Ottawa Train Yards).

The first Canadian Nordstrom Rack opened in March 2018 at Vaughan Mills shopping mall in a Toronto suburb.

“We’re excited to continue growing our presence in Canada by opening a much-anticipated Nordstrom Rack location in Langley,” said Geevy Thomas, president of Nordstrom Rack, in a statement.

“We’ve learned from our Canadian customers since our initial openings in 2018, and look forward to enhancing the customer experience with our latest service and experience touchpoints to best serve the Vancouver market.”
