Insights

  • Canada Goose has launched a re-commerce platform called Canada Goose Generations in Canada.
  • The initiative aligns with the company's commitment to sustainability and offers customers a way to rediscover and love their products for longer.
  • This platform allows consumers to trade in and purchase pre-loved Canada Goose outerwear and apparel.
Canada Goose has launched its re-commerce platform – Canada Goose Generations – in Canada. Putting the company's purpose to keep the planet cold and the people on it warm into action, Generations invites consumers to trade in and purchase pre-loved Canada Goose outerwear and apparel directly from the performance luxury brand. Generations directly supports Canada Goose's Sustainable Impact Strategy, helping achieve its annual warranty waste goal, which is outlined in the company's Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) Report.

Canada Goose is celebrated for its uncompromised Canadian craftsmanship, manufacturing function-first products that withstand the elements and the test of time. This latest sustainable endeavour, which debuted in the United States earlier this year, tangibly gives new life to its products and keeps quality pieces in circulation for decades. Consumers trade in their Canada Goose products via Generations' online portal. Once they're sent in, assessed, and authenticated, consumers will then receive a Canada Goose gift card, the company said in a press release.

"Canada Goose Generations is a perfect expression of what luxury means today and defines a more sustainable tomorrow," said Carrie Baker, president of Canada Goose. "Meticulously crafted in Canada with the best materials, our products are uniquely positioned to be re-discovered and loved for a second, third and fourth time. Bringing Generations to our home market presents a meaningful opportunity for us to connect and reconnect with long-time customers in an exciting new way."

This year's ESG Report is an important milestone in Canada Goose's sustainability journey, reaching goals in advance of their target year, making significant strides in evolving its business and operations, and beginning to set its sights beyond 2025. Canada Goose reduced its scope 1 and 2 emissions by nearly 45 per cent year-over-year by investing in global renewable energy credits that address wind, hydroelectricity and solar power, and retrofitting its manufacturing plants. Canada Goose achieved its goal to divert 100 per cent of its annual warranty waste through Canada Goose Generations, the Canada Goose Resource Centre Programme and the Canada Goose Response Programme. Canada Goose transitioned over 75 per cent of its materials to Preferred Fibres and Materials (PFMs). PFMs include those that are recycled, organic, natural, bio-degradable and plant-based.

"This ESG Report focuses on key issues in our industry and around the world – from material innovation to reducing our carbon footprint to our Human Rights policy," said Gavin Thompson, senior vice president of corporate citizenship, Canada Goose. "We continue to actively transform our business, while remaining true to our purpose to keep the planet cold and the people on it warm. I'm proud of our employees and thankful to our partners, who join us in our commitment to this purpose."
