Canada’s first Nordstrom is slated to open in Calgary’s Chinook Centre today, marking the Seattle-based company’s first international store, according to the Toronto Star.

The company is entering the new market cautiously. “We’re opening one store. I feel good about that decision because we can respond to one store and see what happens,” says Erik Nordstrom, one of the Nordstrom family members behind the expansion. “We will open our doors and we will look to respond to customer comments right off the bat.”

Additional locations are scheduled to open in 2016 and 2017.
