Home Outfitters is out, Hudson’s Bay Home is in

According to Retail Insider, HBC has decided to turn all Home Outfitters locations into Hudson’s Bay Home, merging the kitchen, bed and bath superstores with the Bay’s own Home business. Most stores will be in for some serious renovations to reflect the new look, and a few, including Toronto’s Square One location, will close altogether. But there’s a bonus for brides-to-be: the gift registries will also be merging, adding more vacuum cleaners, curtains and bath towels to the Bay’s already robust selection.
