Made in Canada

In the midst of an ever-persistent time of growth, Joseph Ribkoff confirms that it is possible to produce in Canada for over 40 international markets. Today, Joseph Ribkoff Inc. (JRI) proudly stands out as one of the leading exporters in the Canadian fashion industry. Since 1990, the offices, workshops, showrooms and warehouse are housed in a spacious state-of-the-art complex (80,000 ft2). Proud of his company, Mr. Ribkoff is also nostalgic when reflecting that the fashion industry is increasingly turning to Asian production markets. "Not many designers have survived globalization and the competition of Asian countries. I attempted to outsource a portion of my production 20 years ago, but I quickly changed my mind," explained the entrepreneur, who is extremely conscientious about the quality of his clothing.
