Loblaw Companies Ltd., Canada’s largest grocery retailer, announced on Monday that it plans to build more than 40 new stores and renovate over 100 existing ones this year. The company said it will invest $1.3 billion in its expansion plan, which will also include improving its e-commerce and digital capabilities.
