Toronto s most iconic Laura Secord shuts down after decades in business
A classic Canadian chocolate shop, Laura Secord, has shut down one of its oldest locations in Toronto.
The Laura Secord in Cloverdale Mall in Etobicoke has permanently closed, a spokesperson from Laura Secord Chocolates headquarters in Quebec confirmed to blogTO. The company spokesperson said that this is just one closure and there are no plans to close all retail shops.
Cloverdale Mall opened in 1956 and there is a proposal for redevelopment to convert the property into a mixed-use residential, parkland, arts and culture and commercial community.
The news of Laura Secord s closure had some reminiscing about the shop known for its green frosted mint chocolates and waffle ice cream cones dipped in chocolate.
