Garneau Acquires Sugoi & Sombrio
Hey guys,
I've worked for Garneau in 2016 and then I went to work for a sporting goods store. I now work in an office as a building drafter.
I have sold Garneau, Sugoi, Pearl Izumi, Craft and other cycling brands. Garneau is by far the best quality products I have sold and owned myself (the bibs are incredible)!
What people don't usually know is that the gear is almost all made at the factory in Québec (where the headquarter is) and at the Vermont factory. It is a family owned business that wants to give job local people and Louis himself is riding every saturday morning with the Garneau Cycling Club.
Garneau is providing the Canadian Olympic Team kits as well as pretty much all the cycling clubs kits in Québec (great customization possibilities and customer service). The brand also sponsored the 2010-2011 Europcar now Direct Energie World Tour Team.
The Garneau mountain bike line was not their strong suit so I actually think they might take advice from the people at Sombrio and just throw in some of their technologies in.
William who as taken over is father is a very intelligent young man. They announced earlier this year that they would inject 2.6$ millions to be up to date and consolidate their presence on the web.
In the end, I returned working for Garneau two times a week, after the office, because it feels like a big family.

I was there, Martin stayed on the ground for about five minutes before he was taken to the hospital. He looked ok, his foot was really big but it didn't looked broken.
