HBC to resurrect discount retailer Zellers with outlets inside Bay ... (The Globe and Mail)

The move comes more than a decade after HBC wound up the Zellers business, unloading leases to American retailer Target.

The family had argued that they had the right to use the Zellers name after Hudson’s Bay failed to renew the trademark, and applied to use the brand for other businesses such as convenience stores and restaurants. “Spanning generations, people hold distinct connections to Zellers through shared experiences with family and friends, and we look forward to building on that in the future.” At one point, the executive drove Zellers’ cuddly teddy bear mascot Zeddy to the middle of the woods and abandoned him there, with the message “everything must go.” A Powell, Zellers chief business officer, said in a statement on Wednesday. The Zellers liquidation spanned 273 stores, most of them being sold off to Target. But the chain’s slogan, “the Lowest Price is the Law,” was challenged by the arrival in Canada of U.S. Following an online vote, the bear found a new home with Ontario non-profit organization Camp Trillium. The revival of the brand is happening more than a decade after HBC unloaded the store leases for the faltering chain to American retailer Target Corp., and wound up the business. Zellers struggled to compete, even as HBC continued to expand by buying up Towers Department Stores, Woodward’s and Canadian locations of American chain Kmart, converting many of them to Zellers stores. The liquidation campaign saw Zellers pivot from earnest, cheery advertising, to posting sarcastic online videos. HBC also did not say how much floor space the Zellers shops would take up inside its department stores, since plans for the locations are still in progress. The company is also launching an e-commerce site for Zellers, the first time the off-price brand has sold goods online.

Zellers was once a major chain in Canada, ran into hard times and was liquidated, but the brand could be viable for a comeback.

The stores and the e-commerce operation are separate companies. However, the deal foreshadowed the eventual demise of the Zellers business. Not too long after that HBC decided to liquidate the remaining Zellers sites, but retained ownership of the brand name.
