Elliot Lake was anticipating the opening of the new Hart Store at the Pearson Plaza taking place this past weekend, but that did not happen for good reason.
The company has decided to expand and more time is needed to do so.
It plans to add on to the original 7,000 expanding to 9,700 square feet.
The company is also considering an option to eventually expand to some 15,000 square feet.
With the initial expansion now underway, the opening of the new store is expected to take place later this fall.
