A grand opening ceremony was held Thursday morning at the former Loblaws location at 472 Bayfield Street, which has been converted into Zehrs.

"We couldn't be more excited about bringing Zehrs to Barrie," said store manager Joel Silver. "Our new store will offer an even greater variety of high-quality products and services that cater to our valued customers' needs."
The City has three other Zehrs locations, two in the south end, on Bryne Drive and Yonge Street, and one in the east end, on Cundles Road.
The Bayfield Street location was initially a Zehrs and was revamped into a Loblaws in 2014.
Zehrs and Loblaws are both owned by Loblaw Companies Limited.
