ABOUT LITTLE BURGUNDY
Little Burgundy was founded in 2008 in our namesake neighbourhood in Montreal, Quebec. The notion of being local and staying connected to our roots is key to our brand's DNA. Little Burgundy is a branded footwear destination with our own unique style for discerning taste.
Little Burgundy is innovative and modern in all of its initiatives. From supporting up-and-coming talent to valuing partnerships with independent artists across the country, Little Burgundy is all about creativity.
With over 34 stores across Canada, Little Burgundy offers the best brands on the market like New Balance, Converse, UGG, Vans and Blundstone.
OUR BRAND PILLARS
ART & SOLE
Art Smart. Little Burgundy is all about keeping it creative, by daring to be different in all aspects of our brand and sharing the spotlight with emerging creative minds.
Little Burgundy takes pride in supporting local photographers, stylists, illustrators, filmmakers, etc. to offer them a national visibility through its stores and website. Little Burgundy works with a wide range of creative minds for many projects that take life in different forms, from social media takeovers to local festivals.
LOCAL BUT NATIONAL (BOUTIQUE FEEL)
The notion of being local and staying connected to our roots is key to our brand’s DNA. Our brand is all about connecting with local communities while having the consumer benefits from a national retailer. Partnerships with local independent ambassadors ensure a close connection to each Canadian community in which Little Burgundy lives.
Even our store design is inspired by the local communities surrounding our locations. In Hamilton, you’ll find various flowers and other greenery incorporated into our furniture, inspired by the nearby Royal Botanical Gardens. Meanwhile, our store in Les Galeries de la Capitale in Quebec City features bright, bold colours pulled from the amusement park located right inside the mall itself and our Chinook location, of course, pays homage to the beautiful Rocky Mountains of Alberta.
CONSCIOUS STYLES
Over the past few years, Little Burgundy set out on a mission to do better for our planet - not just in the way we operate but also through the products we stock on our shelves.
From Matt & Nat to Native, our team actively seeks out sustainably made brands and product lines. We also enhanced our very own Floyd collection with organic cotton.
Every decision counts when it comes to our planet. From the selection of products, to 100% recycled bags and LED lights in our stores, we challenged ourselves to do better.
DIVERSITY & INCLUSIVITY
Little Burgundy takes pride in being respectful and inclusive, and embracing diversities, from our employee's culture to our partnerships. We encourage people to cultivate their own identity and style. We provide each employee with paid community hours that can be utilized to give back to causes that are close to their hearts.
We have at heart to support the communities in which we operate. In 2020, we started partnering with Desta, an organization based in our namesake neighbourhood in Montreal. We embrace Desta's values and its mission to help young adults reach their full potential.
Through training, retail onboarding, community hours and more, we hope to contribute to the success and full accomplishment of Desta members. Learn more about Desta HERE.
WE BELIEVE IN THE POWER OF DIVERSITY. WE STAND FOR RACIAL EQUALITY. WE STAND FOR KINDNESS AND INCLUSION. WE STAND AGAINST INJUSTICE AND VIOLENCE. TOGETHER WE ARE STRONGER, UNITED THROUGH LOVE. LITTLE BURGUNDY IS PART OF A FAMILY WITH AN ATTITUDE THAT CARES.
