Shopping & Services

Retail and other commercial facilities in the city rival those of much larger centres.  This is due in large part to the 250,000 market population served by Grande Prairie.  Grande Prairie’s shopping is primarily contained within three major corridors (listed below).  Major shopping centres include City Centre, the Prairie Mall and area, and the Gateway Power Centre and area.  In addition, there are numerous strip malls and commercial/retail businesses located throughout the city that cater to a variety of needs and interests.

City Centre – many specialty retail shops, restaurants, the Co-op Centre Mall, and Towne Centre Mall.

Prairie Mall & Area – 100 Street North (anchored by Zellers) with approximately 150 stores and services; numerous strip malls, and specialty shops.  Sears Canada Inc. and The Real Canadian Superstore are located in close proximity to the Prairie Mall.
