Mississauga's Massive New Best-In-Class Food Market Officially Opens
Big things are coming to Mississauga's Square One Shopping Centre. Hot on the heels of Upper Canada Mall's new food market, Market & Co., comes The Food District - a best-in-class food market with 22 specialty vendors. The Food District is set to open on April 4th, 2019 and will transform Square One into one of Mississauga's best destinations for food.
The Food District will span across 40,000 square feet and will double as a place for visitors to gather, relax and share a meal. The centrepiece of the new Food District, called The District Kitchen, will be an interactive demonstration space that hosts cooking classes, tastings, dinner parties and events.
