TORONTO, Sept. 9, 2026 /CNW/ -- Toronto Pearson is transforming the passenger experience by opening more than 30 new retail, dining and lounge offerings throughout 2026 in a landmark commercial expansion that features a strong lineup of Canadian-owned, Toronto-founded and locally inspired brands alongside internationally recognized names.
From homegrown favourites like Roywoods, Muskoka Supply Co., Greetings from Toronto, Mary Brown's Chicken, Dillon's, Libretto Slice Shop and KINTON RAMEN to premium global brands such as CHANEL and Ladurée, the new openings reflect Pearson's commitment to delivering a more diverse, enjoyable and distinctly Canadian travel experience for passengers.
"For millions of travellers each year, Toronto Pearson is where journeys begin, connections are made and Canada comes to life," said Deborah Flint, CEO, Toronto Pearson. "By continuing to evolve our retail and dining options, we are creating a sense of place that reflects the diversity, creativity and entrepreneurial spirit of our country, while delivering an exceptional passenger experience."
Among the retail and dining openings are:
Throughout the year, passengers will also see the introduction of a range of new dining concepts, including Boulevard Pizza, OEB Kitchen + Bar, Pret A Manger, Real Fruit Bubble Tea, Brasa Peruvian Kitchen and the airport's first Mary Brown's Chicken location, along with elevated lounge and hospitality offerings, including Wait N' Rest private rooms and a new Plaza Premium Lounge opening.
This landmark year comes as Pearson embarks on ambitious plans to modernize and prepare for future growth through the LIFT (Long-term Investment in Facilities and Terminals) program. These dining, retail and lounge openings create more opportunities for travellers to eat, shop and relax throughout the airport while providing Canadian and local businesses with a platform to connect with millions of visitors from around the world.
"We understand how important it is for travelers to have meaningful retail options that celebrate the spirit of the region and the makers behind it. Bringing Muskoka Supply Co. and Greetings from Toronto to life is an exciting first step in the new vision at Toronto Pearson. Both concepts reflect a city that values local brands, thoughtfully curated goods, and a sense of place. We're proud to partner with the airport to introduce experiences that truly resonate with travelers, and this is just the beginning."
"Our decades-long partnership with Toronto Pearson has taught us what world-class truly means -- and these new dining venues and retail stores are the fullest expression of that yet. Every concept we've introduced reflects our shared commitment to putting the traveler first: elevated food, curated retail, and a richer experience from the moment they walk through the doors. This is the result of a partnership defined by shared vision, mutual investment, and an unwavering dedication to the traveler."
"At Roywoods, we've always taken pride in delivering genuine hospitality, serving authentic Caribbean flavours made with quality ingredients, and creating an experience that makes everyone feel welcome. Opening at Toronto Pearson is an exciting milestone because the airport reflects the diversity that has always been at the heart of our brand. There's no better place to share the flavours and culture we love with travellers from around the world."
