TORONTO, March 16, 2018 /CNW/ - In celebration of spring, Cadillac Fairview (CF) is excited to announce the arrival of the CF Flower Market, a specialty pop-up shop reminiscent of open-air markets commonly found in Europe. Showcasing passionate retailers and local merchants ready to deliver the season's best in fresh florals, fashion, flavours and accessories, the CF Flower Markets will make their debut at CF shopping centres and blossom across Canada starting on March 17.

"At CF, we are committed to offering our shoppers unexpected, engaging, and highly-visual experiences," said Craig Flannagan, VP, Consumer Marketing, Cadillac Fairview. "For us, the arrival of spring provides the perfect opportunity to refresh our properties by bringing together dynamic retail partners and exciting local vendors to create a show-stopping spring experience in all of our shopping centres."

Visually captivating, the CF Flower Markets will immerse shoppers in the colours, scents and wonders of the season, featuring large floral and greenery displays. The markets aim to elevate shopper spirits and offer guests many shareable moments including beautiful wisteria displays inspired by this year's trendiest colour: ultra violet. Select locations will also feature whimsical 8-foot-tall bunny topiaries that are sure to be irresistible with social media enthusiasts.

Once onsite, shoppers will have the opportunity to purchase merchandise from a range of rotating vendors set up in vintage vendor sugar carts throughout the two weeks. Each market will feature a local florist boasting an assortment of fresh blooms and bouquets along with accompanying vendors offering everything from seasonal fare, fashions, accessories and more.
