Over Hudson's Bay

Deze omschrijving staat in het Engels.

Hudson's Bay ("the Bay") was a Canadian department store chain that was the flagship brand of the Hudson's Bay Company (HBC), which was the oldest company in North America. The first department store opened in Winnipeg, Manitoba. The chain mainly served Western Canada at first. However, it achieved a national footprint with the acquisition and conversion of the Freimans, Morgan's, Simpsons, and Woodward's department stores in the latter half of the 20th century. Its headquarters and flagship store were located at the Hudson's Bay Centre in Toronto from 1974 until relocating its headquarters to the Simpson Tower in 1978, and converting the adjacent Simpsons flagship store into the Bay flagship store in 1991. Historical buildings including the former Henry Morgan Building in Montreal and the Bay Building in Vancouver were also flagship stores for the Bay. The flagship stores in Edmonton, Winnipeg, and the Hudson's Bay Centre store closed in the early 2020s due to the COVID-19 pandemic. HBC filed for creditor protection in March 2025, and began liquidating all but six Hudson's Bay stores in Ontario and Quebec. The remaining stores, however, began liquidating in April 2025 after failing to find a buyer to keep them afloat, and all stores were closed by 1 June 2025. Canadian Tire acquired HBC's intellectual property, including Hudson's Bay.
