French-Canadian entrepreneur Stephen Tetrault acquired Electronics Boutique Canada inc. from GameStop Global Holdings S.A.R.L. on May 5 and will rebrand the stores as EB Games Canada.<\/p>\n

The Canadian storefronts of the video game retail chain rebranded into GameStop Canada in July 2021, after being established under the EB Games Canada title in 1993.<\/p>\n

Trenault made the acquisition with the help of HNA, a multidisciplinary accounting firm located in Montreal.<\/p>\n

The rebrand is expected to take place over the next few months, with new store signage, a new website, new branding, and a revamped shopping experience.<\/p>\n

The chain of video game stores originally launched as Electronic Boutique in 1977 in the U.S., before spreading to other territories internationally. <\/p>\n

EB Games and GameStop merged in 2005 in a US$1.44 billion deal.<\/p>\n

The company changed CEOs in June 2023 after terminating<\/a> its contract with Matthew Furlong, who held the position for two years.<\/p>\n

The company’s sales declined 10% in the first quarter of the fiscal year in 2023 and adopted aggressive cost-cutting to narrow its losses in the previous fiscal year but still lost US$300 million.<\/p>\n

Since 2019, GameStop has closed over 800 stores worldwide.<\/p>\n
