CHILLIWACK — An international retail chain known for selling everything for the home – from mattresses to tables, to furniture and dining sets, chairs and more – has plans to open in Chilliwack.

According to a very brief statement emailed to Fraser Valley Today on Friday, Nov. 21 from the communications department at the City of Chilliwack, a tenant improvement permit and a development permit for form and character have been issued for a Jysk store at 7560 Vedder Road in Chilliwack.

Two tradesmen from Langley Drywall were seen working on the exterior of the vacant premises this past week. One of the guys working outside confirmed the store would be a Jysk location and estimated about 30 people had stopped to inquire about what was going into the store.

A Jysk customer service rep confirmed a store would open in Chilliwack, but did not have any information on when that might occur. Fraser Valley Today reached out to a commercial real estate agent with Marcus & Millichap but never got a firm timeline.

Jysk (pronounced Yusk) first opened in Canada in 1996 in Coquitlam. It operates over 69 stores in Canada with locations across B.C., Alberta, Saskatchewan, Manitoba, Ontario, Quebec and Nova Scotia.

Not to belabour the point, but it’s also got lots of storage inventory, including boxes and baskets, plastic storage, entryway and hallway furniture, garment racks, shoe racks, makeup and jewelry storage units, and trunks.

The Jysk location closest to Chilliwack and Abbotsford is located in Fleetwood (Surrey).
