Giant Tiger—branded as Tigre Géant in French-speaking communities—is a proudly Canadian discount retailer that has been a neighborhood staple since 1961. In Moncton, Giant Tiger operates as a critical “one-stop shop,” combining the speed of a convenience store with the prices of a major grocer and fashion retailer.
