Andrea Hopson, a former vice president of Tiffany’s in Canada and her business partner Martha Grace McKinn, will shortly open a new shop featuring tabletop items. They have chosen to locate at 1120 Yonge (at Marlborough) formerly occupied by the Patachou Patisserie. Ms. Hopson is quoted extensively in Canadian Jeweller Magazine about this new venture. She says that after 21 years with Tiffany & Co. has joined the Advisory Board at Mindham Fine Jewellery and other jewellers. But it appears her real focus a “niche luxury retail bricks and mortar and on-line business in Toronto’s Rosedale neighbourhood.” Hopson Grace will focus on entertaining with a highly curated merchandise offering of largely exclusive tabletop designs from around the globe. We will extend an elevated customer experience as we encourage Torontonians and Canadians to “‘come back to the table”. Hopson Grace plans to open in the early Spring of 2015. Sounds nice.
Hopson-Grace
Andrea Hopson – I know she will prosper. Andrea was one of the nicest people one could work for. I first met Andrea at Tiffany & Co., where Andrea & Rob Ferguson hired me. Spent many happy years at Tiffany & Co. Andrea is a real people person and is extremely talented and gracious with people from all walks of life. Wishing Andrea & Martha a great journey.
