While walking up and down Queen Street in Downtown Toronto, David Fu noticed that there were a lot of empty storefronts. Even though he was in the heart of downtown Toronto, the businesses were not. His startup Tenatch is here to provide a solution.
Tenatch is a startup currently being incubated at ICUBE UTM. They are a retail solutions company, offering consultation on location optimisation. They hope to see a return to form, with small businesses being able to thrive downtown once more. Small businesses make the city more vibrant, while also creating jobs. Over the summer they hired 3 interns to make some videos! Their first video details the ‘Retail Apocalypse’ in Toronto:

In their second video, they interviewed Cynthia (a U of T alumni) and founder of Cynthia’s Bath Lab at the CNE. Small businesses like hers are an example of the type of retail ventures that Tenatch is looking to help:
