On Friday afternoon, customers were seen shopping inside Bowring on Orfus Road, near Yorkdale Shopping Centre.A flyer for the store says it is now open daily for a warehouse sale and is offering “15,000 Sq. Ft. of savings on all tabletop, dining, grocery, living, home decor, lighting and so much more.”It is unknown what food is included in their food market.
Under these rules, Bowring would be required to close its doors and offer only curbside or pick-up service. However, like big box stores that sell groceries, Bowring’s food market could make it eligible for indoor shopping. Maureen Sirois, president of the Toronto Association of Business Improvement Areas, told CP24 that Bowring’s actions are “unjust and sickening.”
