Costco in Rexdale at 2260 Islington Avenue is now open. We’ve been waiting for this! Share your experience, favourite deals, and what you love about it in the comments below.
A brand new Costco Wholesale has opened today, Thursday November 2nd. 2023, at 2260 Islington Avenue. This Costco in Rexdale is situated where the old Sears warehouse used to be across from the Walmart shopping centre.
Construction is well underway and as of August, there is a trailer on-site to sign up for a Costco membership:
It will have a gas station as well as a very roomy two-storey parking lot unlike other Costco locations. The gas station is now open; here is a photo taken in the last week of June while it was under construction:
Costco will be the anchor of this new development of 50,000 square metres of retail space at Islington and Rexdale. The new plaza will also have an LCBO and Toronto’s largest Canadian Tire location. There will also be a BMO; the sign went up in the last week of July. A new sign also went up inviting people to “Beat The Rush and Join Today.”
So when is the new Costco in North Etobicoke opening? If you are curious about new Costco locations, the Costco website has a list of locations that are scheduled to open in the next few months. This location’s opening date was recently posted as November 2023. (The only other Canadian location that was listed on their site this year was the new Costco in south London, Ontario that opened in March.) This new Costco at Islington and the 401 has been under construction for several months and is set to open its doors on November 2nd, 2023. The new Canadian Tire, LCBO and BMO are now open.
For those interested in applying for jobs at the Costco on Islington or any of the Costco warehouses in Canada, you can explore the positions available by clicking Apply Now on the job opportunities page on the official Costco Canada website.

Right now for this location, there are listings for job opportunities that are “representative of jobs at a Costco location.”

It’s amazing & can not wait. But when is the opening date?
Costco hasn’t provided a specific date yet for the opening of this location, but it’s likely to be sometime in the fall when the Canadian Tire has announced it will be opening at this site. The Costco website lists the month of the opening of their new locations when they get closer to the opening date, so we will watch their site for updates!
November 2023, according to the Costco website.

Based on the information available, the stores that are scheduled to open in the development with the new Costco and Canadian Tire include LCBO, Church’s Chicken, Burger King, Firehouse Subs, BMO, Hunnypot Cannabis, Roll Me Up Ice Cream, Thai Express, Fat Bastard Burrito, Booster Juice, and Pedi’n Nails.

Is the Walmart moving over too? It needs a major refresh for sure if going to compete
Our best information at this time is that the Walmart is not moving or undergoing a refresh despite the new competition.
I shop at the Walmart Supercentre store in the Rexdale Mall at least four times a week. They are undergoing renovations to the store and are also clearing out certain items.
Thank you..for keeping us posted on
Progress of THE COSTCO CENTRE!!!
Thanks for posting. I am looking a discount for membership. Are they offering discounts?
The fall is not far away, they should give a date so we can see the brand costco store.
per company website “Costco doesn’t offer free or discounted memberships”
The BMO Elmhurst bank branch will be moving from their current location to a new location close to the new Costco. This bank branch will be at the new location starting September 19, 2023 according to their posted, printed materials available at the bank branch. The staff have mentioned it to me, too.
