Located in the Yorkdale Shopping Centre, the store has 5,000ft² of retail space offering all the latest women’s collections.
Mango has also revealed plans to open a further seven stores in Toronto by July this year.
The first three of these stores are due to be opened at the Eaton Centre, Square One and Scarborough Town Centre by April.
The company will open four more stores at Vaughan Mills, Markville, Upper Canada and Fairview between June and July.
These stores are part of an agreement Mango signed with Fox Group last year to expand in North America for ten years.
