Think global, buy local
Buying local is becoming more and more popular, and for good reason! Did you know that according to the Ministère de l’Agriculture, des Pêcheries et de l’Alimentation du Québec (MAPAQ), fruits and vegetables consumed in Quebec travel an average of 3,000 to 5,000 kilometers before ending up in Fido’s bowl. Buying locally reduces this distance by 5 to 10 times, and by the same token, the pollution associated with greenhouse gases.
The impact on the local economy is also significant. According to the CPQ, if each citizen spent $20 more per week on goods and services of Quebec origin, this would increase Quebec's economic activity by 2%, which would result in the creation of 100,000 new jobs.
Canada can also count on some of the strictest food standards, excellent control over ingredients and their origins, and better traceability of meat. All this to offer your companion products of exceptional quality. Products designed here, by local people.
Buying local is an economically, socially and environmentally beneficial option.
