HISTORY The first store was opened in 1960 in Toronto (at the corner of Lawrence Ave. East and Midland Ave.). Each selling department within a Towers store was operated as a licensed concession. In Quebec , Towers was known as Bonimart. In 1990 , Towers/BoniMart's 51 stores were purchased by Zellers for $181.5 million, and converted to the Zellers name. Zellers had been a unit of the Hudson's Bay Company since 1978 . The flagship store is now a Zellers store. Tower's jingle: "At Towers everything connects - the last day of one sale is the first of the next". ''See also:'' List Of Canadian Department Stores |
