    2. Markham is a rapidly growing city with residential areas increasing and in great demand.
    3. Location - The store is in a great plaza owned by Metrus and it is at the busy corner of Major Mackenzie & Markham road, next to Once Upon a Child, and PetSmart, in a Food Basics plaza, and walking distance to The Home Depot and LCBO.
    4. In our 3-mile territory we have a population of +300,000 people.
