Hbc selected IBM to build, manage and host its eRetail store, including sites for Hbc's retail outlets: the Bay, Zellers, Home Outfitters and Designer Depot. The new site allows Hbc to focus on its core business of retailing and leave the online site operations to IBM; a move that will help Hbc lower costs.

Additional components of the new online store are being developed and implemented in phases throughout 2006 and beyond. The sites are designed to have the ability to handle both the expected peaks of visitors for the Torino Winter Olympic Games in February 2006, as well as future online traffic growth.
