Shaw broadband now available at the grocery store


CALGARY – Westerners can now buy Shaw Fibre+ Gig along with Shaw Mobile at any of The Mobile Shop locations found in 52 Real Canadian Superstore and T&T Supermarket stores, the company announced Thursday.

“We’re working, learning and socializing more online with more devices than ever before, so everyone is looking to maximize their home internet value without sacrificing connectivity. That’s why we wanted to make it easier for Western Canadians to get the internet and wireless services they need at the same place they go every week for their groceries,” said Paul Deverell, Shaw’s president, consumer, in the press release.

“The Mobile Shop offers the convenience of picking out a new device or plan at your local grocery store all with unbiased advice from our Mobilists and the top carriers to choose from. We’re excited today to be the first third-party provider of both Shaw Fibre+ Gig and Shaw Mobile, offering our customers more choice when adding mobile, and now internet, to their grocery list,” said Maria Forlini, senior vice president, PC Services for Loblaws Inc.

The relationship between Shaw and The Mobile Shop started in 2018 when the national retailer began selling Freedom Mobile products and services and it expanded in July 2020 with the launch of Shaw Mobile. The Mobile Shop is the first national retail distributor of Shaw Internet and Shaw Mobile products.
