Fashion Outlets of Niagara welcome the return of Canadian shoppers

April has become a turning point for the Fashion Outlets of Niagara, after Canada dropped what could be a costly testing requirement for vaccinated travelers.
"We've seen our Canadian shoppers come back in the hundreds, and we're happy to see every single one of them," general manager John Doran said.
Unvaccinated travelers still have to test.
On weekends, Doran says up to 50 percent of the shoppers are Canadian. It's pivotal for businesses there, who saw much smaller crowds during the COVID pandemic but rely on all shoppers to support them.
"There's about a million people in Erie and Niagara County. There's about 8 million population in Southern Ontario. Just the numbers alone tell us that the Southern Ontario consumer is an important to our success," Doran said.
