Zellers is back in Canada with stores across the country both big and small, but the revamped discount store chain is expanding even further.

The company announced Wednesday that Zellers stores will soon be located inside of every single Hudson's Bay location in Canada.

The pop-up style locations are set to open inside of dozens more Hudson's Bay stores by September 22, 2023, just in time for holiday shopping.

In total, 78 Hudson's Bay locations in Canada will now offer shoppers a "Zellers experience" the company said in a press release, adding the new stores in British Columbia, Alberta, Manitoba, Ontario, and Quebec will serve as, "strategic market tests to determine future Zellers store locations."

"We continue to see Canadians embrace Zellers, and are delighted by the experience of people discovering the amazing quality and style of the assortment we carry," said Hudson's Bay President Sophia Hwang-Judiesch in a statement. "As I've said before, pop-ups are a key ingredient in our expansion strategy, allowing us to explore and test in new markets and fine-tune our offering before establishing larger format store locations."

Zellers stores built inside of Hudson's Bay location will range from 8,000 square feet to 10,000 square feet, depending on the location.
