In today’s globalized world, consumers have more choices than ever before. With just a few clicks, products can arrive from across the world, but at what cost? When you buy from Lakefront Market Group, you’re not just making a purchase—you’re making a difference. Every order helps strengthen Canadian businesses, create local jobs, and ensure that quality remains a top priority.
Here’s why supporting Canadian businesses like ours matters more than ever.
1. Supporting the Local Economy
When you buy from a Canadian retailer, your money stays within Canada. It supports jobs, wages, and small businesses that help communities thrive. Studies show that dollars spent at local businesses are recirculated within the economy at a much higher rate than those spent on foreign imports.
How your purchase helps:
Strengthens Canadian supply chains
Keeps tax dollars within the country
Supports local entrepreneurs
2. Ensuring High-Quality, Canadian-Approved Products
At Lakefront Market Group, we stand behind every product we sell. Many items available in our store come from trusted Canadian suppliers who adhere to strict quality and safety regulations. Unlike mass-imported goods, our products meet Canadian safety and environmental standards, ensuring you receive high-quality, safe, and reliable items.
Why this matters:
Canadian regulatory standards ensure better consumer protection
Locally sourced goods often use higher-quality materials
Shorter supply chains mean fresher, more durable products
3. Reducing Environmental Impact with Shorter Shipping Distances
Shipping products from overseas increases carbon emissions due to long-haul transportation, excessive packaging, and energy-intensive warehousing. When you buy from us, you reduce the carbon footprint of your purchases by choosing items that don’t need to travel thousands of kilometers to reach your doorstep.
Buying local = Lower emissions & a greener future.
4. Keeping Jobs in Canada & Strengthening Our Workforce
Small and medium-sized businesses make up over 90% of Canada’s private sector jobs. When you choose to support a Canadian business, you help create and sustain jobs for Canadians—from logistics workers to customer service teams, warehouse staff, and beyond.
🇨🇦 Every purchase is a vote of confidence in Canadian workers.
