Music lovers in Brandon will soon have a new place to dig through vinyl bins and discover pop‑culture favourites. Sunrise Records, Canada’s largest independent record store chain, is preparing to open a new location at Shoppers Mall, bringing its long‑standing passion for physical media to the community.
Founded in 1977, Sunrise Records has grown into a nationally recognized brand with nearly 80+ stores across Canada. After being revitalized and expanded under current owner Doug Putman, the chain has become a major destination for vinyl records, CDs, DVDs, Blu‑rays, and a wide range of pop‑culture merchandise. Sunrise Records is especially well known for supporting Record Store Day, championing physical media, and helping keep brick‑and‑mortar music retail alive in a digital age.
As the Brandon store prepares to open, Sunrise Records is actively hiring. The company has posted job opportunities for the upcoming location, including leadership and in‑store roles, signaling that opening preparations are underway. Those interested in joining the team are encouraged to apply online through Workopolis by searching Sunrise Records Brandon, MB. Or visit sunriserecords.com for company info and career links.
With an official opening set for July, the new store will be located next to Cleo in Shoppers Mall Barandon. Anticipation is building for Sunrise Records’ arrival — a welcome addition for music fans and collectors across Westman.
