Toys R Us Closing in Winnipeg | Winnipeg News

Toys R Us is closing its iconic Regent Avenue West store in Winnipeg after 36 years, selling off everything from toys to fixtures — though the exact date remains unknown. This follows a rocky year for the retailer, including a scrapped closure at the Polo Park location. Under creditor protection since February and owned by Putman Investments, the store was recently renovated to include the beloved PlayLab. Shoppers are heartbroken, recalling cherished memories and lost jobs, even as global toy sales rise and Canada’s toy store count grows — a confusing twist in an otherwise tough retail landscape.
