Sears Canada To Be Providing Penningtons Plus-Size Fashions
Thursday, Sears Canada and Reitmans Limited announced their
agreement for the addition of Penningtons brand to Sears
stores and online. This introduction is a customer-centric
approach for the Canadian retail industry, and Sears will be
the only store to offer the apparel outside of Penningtons
own stores. Initially, Penningtons will be made available on
sears.ca and in five Sears pilot stores, but is expected to
be introduced in additional Sears locations and in the
Spring catalogue in 2014. (Source
