It is wonderful to feel the grandness of Canada in the raw, not because she is Canada but because she's something sublime that you were born into, some great rugged power that you are a part of.- Emily Carr

Marks Work warehouse and other inside companys


When any company's stocks goes down it causes a slight panic no matter the scale or size of the company. In 2001 that's what happened with Canadian tire, the economy wasn't recovered yet and sales for different company's were decreasing and fairly many were increasing. IN a way to increase profits and give a new edge and a new name and title to add to CT they decided to ADD new branch into locations. On December 21st 2001 Canadian tire annoucned that they were buying Marks work warehouse, a store that sales clothes and shoes for women and men that are work worthy and durable for all kinds of professions. They purchased the company for 116 million dollars and quickly started to add the new division into old locations as well as new locations that they were planning on to build. With the high demand of Canadian tire locations they started to increase the size of normal size locations to buying propriety that use to occupy large retail stores such as walmart jamming all of the older products and new products they wanted to display with the largest location located in Nova Scotia. By placing the clothing department into CT it increased the clientele and demographic because it gave yet another reason on why people should shop there as well as increasing the variety of different departments to shop in. IN recent years following their large purchase of marks CT announced that that they were purchasing the Forzani group which owns different types of store including the largest Sports good store in Canada , sport chek.
