There’s good news for Edmonton-area shoppers with the announcement of a new 85-store outlet mall planned for the Edmonton International Airport.
Developer Ivanhoe Cambridge and the airport announced Wednesday a conditional agreement for the project called, The Outlet Collection at EIA.
The new mall will be located next to the QEII Highway and south of Airport Road. Both Ivanhoe Cambridge and the airport must sign a final agreement in early 2014 with the outlet mall slated to open in the fall of 2016.
“This is great news. It means more shopping, entertainment and hospitality options, not only for passengers, but for Greater Edmonton. The airport is a self-funded not-for-profit corporation, so airport revenue that is generated by leasing the land for this project will be reinvested into building better air service for the Edmonton Region. Ultimately, this will support more flights to more places”, said Myron Keehn, EIA Vice President of Commercial Development said in a news release.
