Red Apple Stores is set to host a major community celebration in Alberta on Friday, July 3, 2026. The retailer will officially unveil two newly refreshed locations in Rimbey and Redwater, offering a day filled with prizes, exclusive deals, and family-friendly activities. Both stores remained open throughout the renovation process, ensuring uninterrupted service to loyal customers.
Grand Opening Day Highlights — July 3
Shoppers at both the Rimbey and Redwater stores can enjoy a variety of special offers and giveaways, including:
- A free $10 Red Apple shopping card and laundry basket for the first 100 customers
- A free Red Apple shopping bag, while supplies last
- A chance to win a $1,000 Red Apple shopping spree
- Two-day flyer deals valid on July 3 and 4
- A 25% off coupon for every customer, redeemable on a future purchase
Promotions will extend beyond the grand opening day, ensuring that even those unable to attend on July 3 can still take advantage of great savings.
Two Stores, Two Fresh Starts
The Red Apple location at 4929 – 50th Avenue in Rimbey has undergone a complete refresh, featuring a brighter layout, modernized shopping environment, and an expanded product assortment tailored to the community's needs. Similarly, the store at 4916 – 49 Avenue in Redwater now boasts a cleaner, more intuitive layout that simplifies the shopping experience across all merchandise categories.
What sets these renovations apart is that neither store closed during the transformation. Customers continued shopping throughout the process, and the dedicated teams at both locations maintained seamless operations.
Jim Hreljac, President of Red Apple Stores, expressed pride in the community support: "What makes us proud about Rimbey and Redwater is that our customers were with us every step of the way – shopping through the whole refresh without interruption. July 3 is the moment we get to say: here’s what we invested in for you. We think they’ll love what they see."
David Johnson, Vice President of Store Operations, added: "Renovating a live store is one of the hardest things a retail team can do. You’re balancing construction, customers, and day-to-day operations all at once, and both of our teams handled it without missing a step. July 3 is their moment as much as anyone’s."
