About the Company

Reitmans

Runs Canadian clothing chains for women and men

Reitmans sells clothing and accessories for women and men across Canada through three store brands, with separate collections for everyday wear, plus-size fashion and work-to-casual styles. Reitmans stores sell women's fashion, Penningtons dresses plus-size women, and RW&CO serves both men and women, with separate product ranges sold through each brand's stores and website. The company designs its collections in Canada and makes its money selling them in its own stores and online, where customers shop by brand for clothing and accessories across casual and work styles.
