STACKT is on a mission to create the next retail ecosystem that’s unconstrained by tradition and designed for inspired brands and consumers. Here, culture, commerce, and curiosity thrive as one. Every day since our April 2019 launch, we’ve been reinventing how it’s done. Incubating and accelerating new concepts. Connecting inspired brands and consumers. Growing and creating together.
From emerging small businesses to progressive big brands, STACKT’s award-winning Toronto flagship, STACKT market, animates 100,000 sq ft with art, retail, events and public space. Made entirely of shipping containers, the dynamic space shifts alongside the brands, people and experiences within it. Featuring more than 1600 shops in residence since launch, there’s always something new to discover.
Much more than a market, STACKT is a space to find inspiration, opportunity and connection.
