Saugeen Shores Shopping Centre is the primary retail centre in Port Elgin, a growing community
situated on Lake Huron. Port Elgin benefits from being a popular summer cottage location and its
close proximity to Bruce Power, the largest employer in the area, resulting in above average
household income. The plaza is strategically located at the intersection of Goderich Street
(Highway 21) and Devonshire Road. With excellent visibility along this major arterial route, the
centre serves local residents year-round, and draws traffic from neighbouring communities such
as Southampton.
Just north of the site is Your Independent Grocer, Shoppers Drug Mart, several other retailers and
additional shopping nearby. Anchored by Food Basics, Dollarama, Goodwill, Starbucks, and
Stacked Pancake House, the centre serves as the main commercial destination for residents and
visitors in the area.
