Answering a niche, yet one that is a highly dominant consumer trend, tech startup StickerYou launches a physical retail extension in the form of a sticker store in Toronto, Canada. The model fuses the traditional and experiential to bring about a unique opportunity for consumers to engage with the brand. The omnichannel approach boasts a sticker museum and a sticker art exhibition, focusing on exhibiting the creative connotation behind the aesthetically pleasing adhesive patches. It also introduces a rather immersive component for guests who have the option to experiment and create their own stickers in the sticker store.

StickerYou foresees this new venture to be a success and the activation has certainly caught the eye of media -- including The Globe and Mail, the Daily Hive, Narcity, and more. As a result, the startup plans further expansion of this practice in 2020.
