Here's a comment about Guelph from September:
And a reply that seems to contradict my notion that the inventory issues will inevitably get sorted out:Went to the Guelph Target on the weekend. I was shocked to see so many empty shelves. Almost as bad as it looked during it's "soft" opening in March. Guelph Target seems worse than other Targets for lack of merchandise. It does seem Target has some serious supply issues.
Agree - shelf after shelf were empty. Very much like it was during the first few weeks.
Also found the store very sloppy, messy, and the store was very much not up to Target standards you would fund in the US.
They had seemed much better in recent months.

Comment to a reply about bare shelves in Toronto in August:
It's so frustrating! I wish they would at least put out a statement of some sort explaining why the shelves are so empty. Although the home stuff is usually not so bad, it's mainly the grocery and beauty section that is empty...
I remember when Target came to Hawaii (maybe a year or two ago) and the shelves were empty- mostly because people are so excited to have a new store they buy more (my opinion). And they don't get shipments in that fast and/or can't stock the shelves fast enough.
