You won’t want to miss the authentic gifts and household items direct from Europe in the ever-changing gift boutique. At Edelweiss Imports you will find a truly European shopping experience.

Back in 1963 a small delicatessen and butcher shop were opened in Brentwood Mall in northwest Calgary. The business changed hands a few times over the years and in 1982 the family purchased the business and so began Village Mall Deli (1982) Ltd. A faithful clientele developed who would shop for their weekly deli needs. In 1986, the deli was rebuilt in a new location in the newly renovated Brentwood Village and added a café which was called Kaffee Stube. In 1994 the business was given to the next generation. That summer it was decided to add a gift shop to Village Mall Deli and the business grew which evolved into Edelweiss Village. Over the course of the years the gift shop expanded and a decision was made to build a new home for the business at 1921 – 20th Avenue NW, Calgary, AB. The character and feeling of the building was dreamed up and created by the owners from memories of their visits overseas, as portrayed in the pictures on the website.
