“Canadians expect their online Shopping experience to be simple, of great value and fun. This is a combination we offer each and every day at SHOP.CA. We are very proud to bring promotions alive like the PS3 bundle, with savings and an exclusive free gift from a great Canadian like Eric” said Drew Green, ceo and founder of SHOP.CA.
With online shopping growing at a rate of approximately 13 per cent year-over-year here in Canada, and expected to represent over 10 per cent of all retail sales globally, SHOP.CA has been very ambitious in its pursuit of partners to join Canada’s largest online shopping site, for this year, and the years to come.
“Our passion is to serve the Canadian consumer who increasingly prefers to shop online, and for us broad selection is part of that service. With so many sites south of the border targeting our hard earned dollars, it is important that SHOP.CA continues to invest alongside our partners to ensure Canadians check with us first to buy what they want to shop for,” added Green. “Whether it’s sporting goods, outdoors, clothing, shoes, electronics, toys, home, housewares or just about anything people look for in their day-to-day shopping, we will never stop adding fantastic new merchant partners to our experience. In fact, our current integration pipeline will ensure we launch one new store per day, on average, between now and the end of the year” added Green.
