MEC is Canada’s go-to place for outdoor gear, know-how and inspiration. Combining high-quality apparel and equipment with expert advice and firsthand experience, MEC supports a wide range of activities including camping, snowsports, watersports, cycling, climbing, hiking, running and travel. Established in 1971, MEC has been a strong backer of community initiatives and has invested $44 million (and counting) into non-profit organizations that support outdoor recreation and conservation. For more information, visit www.mec.ca and follow @mec, or visit one of our stores nationwide. We outfit our members for every outdoor adventure: from climbing, hiking and camping to snow sports, water sports, cycling and yoga. But we offer more than products: we peddle passion. Regardless of a member’s level of activity or experience, we love to share our expertise and enthusiasm to connect people with quality products that inspire active outdoor lifestyles. If you want to know what it’s like working here, we also encourage each other to get moving. To get out the front door. Take the plunge. Try something new like riding in a Fondo, bouldering or paddle boarding. MEC is a place where ideas spark and a craving to play outside gets stoked.
