The Signé Local experience at Quartier Dix30

Signé Local leaves the web!

While retail is far from its peak, the founders behind our unique concept make an ambitious decision. In fact, it was shortly after the launch of the marketplace, the Marketplace , that their new project came to fruition.

As a harmonious evolution that complements all the services offered, the pop-up store is born. The latter, which has a storefront in the urban oasis of quartier dix30, offers an impressive group of local talents. More specifically, this initiative offers Quebec creators a popular and accessible showcase to shine alongside major retail brands.

The location

The urban oasis presumably offers a reinvented shopping experience, even for die-hard addicts. This must-see offers a host of activities for the whole family on Avenue des Lumières, which has been completely transformed and pedestrianized for the occasion. Thus, you can easily enhance a shopping session by taking full advantage of the remaining beautiful days.

After sunbathing on the sun loungers or a game of chess outside, there's nothing like a visit to the boutique to complete the experience. From the moment we set foot inside, the calm and gentleness intoxicate us. The uncluttered layout in this vast room allows the brain to assimilate the quantity of quality products on offer. You can easily find stuff related to home, fashion, children, sports, food, etc.

Product accessibility

Another major advantage is the accessibility to products which, very often, are offered virtually at first glance. For many, in addition to being inspiring, it is reassuring to have the possibility of contemplating, touching and smelling our future acquisitions. This is without counting the unknown creators that we can discover. The most difficult thing when visiting this shop is the fight that must be waged to avoid being tempted by a crowd of compulsive purchases, as everything is desirable.

The diversity offered is very impressive. For children, you can start with an Alice & Simone hat, opt for a cuddly toy from Les Monstres à câlins and finish with a Gaspard night light from Veille sur toi . To pamper the older ones, the offer is spectacular with products from BKIND , bath bombs from Effervescence and soaps from Savonnerie des Diligences . In terms of clothing and accessories, the charm operates with the wooden bows of BOM design , the casual is put forward with MB Alpha Wear and MOOV Active Wear . Finally, you can find everything for the home, whether it's gourmet products from Carrément tarte , dreamy duvets from LaDuvet Nordique or a unique plant support from Tête de Courge .

In short, you can easily convince yourself that you only want a pot of caramel from La Lichée and go out with White Soja candles and an upgraded piece of furniture from Rêves en couleurs !

Local Signed Meetings

In addition to satisfying the shopaholic in all of us, the boutique offers workshops that are out of the ordinary. During these Signé Local meetings, you can talk with your favorite creators about what excites them. So far, BB & Me has discussed the importance of liniment; WhyNotStuff broke down the making of unique stuffed animals; Sandrine Chambert Cosmétique has created bespoke lipsticks; Fleep tested your preferences (soft or firm?); Les Belles Combines shared the secrets for a united family; and Devi-Deva proposed a Zen encounter.

Despite the number of past meetings, several other great discoveries are on the calendar for the months of September and October. I am already looking forward to the idea that several companies that I particularly like are offering meetings in September and October. I'm excited and I certainly don't want to miss my chance to chat with these creators. I'm curious to learn more about the extraordinary clothes of Chandail de Loup , the ceramic masterpieces of Goye , the products that smell of the sky from Les Coconuts , the environmental alternatives for everyday life of Baléco , the ultra-trendy cloth diapers from Omaiki and so on…

Whether it's for a walk outside, finding new products, giving yourself a gift or having a long chat with inspiring entrepreneurs, all the reasons are good to stop by our Signé Local pop-up store.

If you haven't had the pleasure of this unique shopping experience yet, you have until October 31, 2017.
