Sears Canada was a retail company that operated in Canada, primarily known for its department stores and online shopping. Founded in 1952, it was a subsidiary of the American company Sears, Roebuck and Company. The stores offered a wide range of products, including clothing, home goods, and appliances, catering to various customer needs. In 2017, Sears Canada filed for bankruptcy and closed many of its stores due to financial difficulties and changing retail trends. The decline was attributed to increased competition from online retailers and shifts in consumer shopping habits, leading to the eventual liquidation of its remaining assets.
